This hot weather has given us plenty of reason to make a cool and refreshing drink on a regular basis. And my kids are always asking for Sparkling Strawberry Lemonade! It’s definitely at the top of their list of favorite thirst quenchers for the summer.
Don’t you just love the colors in this drink? And I really love the fruit, as opposed to using a syrup. It cuts down on sugar and gives more of a natural strawberry flavor. Yum!
Sparkling Strawberry Lemonade
