Fresh squeezed lemons in a basic simple syrup kicked up by adding the juice of blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries to crate the most amazing refreshing drink! An epic Triple Berry Lemonade if ever there was one!
My husband is a big ol’ softy when it comes to kids and lemonade stands!
He’ll stop every time and buy a sticky syrupy cup, throw in an extra quarter or two, chat with the kiddo’s for a minute, ask how business is going, and then wish them luck on their venture!
It’s just ONE of the many things I adore about him…(He’s the best! I’m one lucky lady!)…
I have an ongoing love affair with lemonade! It’s my favorite summer drink! Maybe not the stuff at the lemonade stand, I’ll leave that for Mr. Wonderful, but fresh squeezed homemade lemonade! Sigh… Slurp…yep!
All About Berry Lemonades
It takes a little effort to make a batch of this amazing beverage. However, it is worth every single drop you’ll squeeze out of those lemons! It is seriously…wait for it…the BEST!
I always have one of the great big giant bags of frozen triple berry blend from Costco.
TIP: I’ll warn you right now…double this recipe! Everyone will be fighting for the last drop!
It is the perfect blend of lemons and berries. It’s not too tart, it’s not too sweet.
This should be in the lemon hall of fame for best lemonade! While the lemons are good, the berries skyrocket this drink into an entirely different hemisphere!
If you’re looking for a drink to serve at your next family get together, or 4th of July, that will really take center stage…look no further…this is it!
Shoot, just make a great big pitcher as a summer treat for yourself! Throw in a fresh sprig of mint and a slice of lemon, and you can kick back on the porch and sip away till sunset!
Enjoy the recipe in the recipe card below. Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you have a wonderful week. Come back soon!
Happy Nesting!
