Cloudy Lemonade for a Sunny Day

This is a revelation in lemonades...and for more than one reason. First allow me to tell you how you make this. Fizzy water, 2 lemons and a small bit of sugar. That's it nice and simple. But often simple is the best way to have something. Seriously think about it...you know it's true.

Today was a remarkable day weather wise. April 3rd in Canada and and 26 degrees! I'm mean it's unheard of. So making some cloudy lemonade for a sunny day just seemed to fit. Husband and I tried it and we both agreed it was good. What I really liked about it was that it's just straight forward lemons and just a little sugar to take the harsh sourness away and you're left with a nice tart refresher.

Now, after I made this I stepped out for a short trip to the plaza and while there I realized what I need to do is add some vodka to this lemonade. So when I got back home that's exactly what I did and it was pretty darn good. But as I was drinking this Husband says to me "Why don't you add some of that Limoncello we have in the fridge to it." and I realized I married a genius. - a flawed genius but still a genius.

After I'd slurrped down my vodka + lemonade I made myself a Limoncello + lemonade. This drink is a Godsend. An Easter miracle if you will. The next time it's a beautiful sunny day and you want a fabulous drink to enjoy on your patio - I urge you to make this. The Limoncello takes this drink to a level I didn't even know existed before. This drink is like a mojito in a way - in teh respect that it's so light and refreshing. And anyone who was at my bachelorette can atest to just how many mojitos I can drink .... and that is quite a darn few. I see just exaclty how I'll be spending my summer afternoons this year... me, some lemonade and my LCBO wondering why limoncello has had a 50% rise in sales.
