posted in Recipes on 8/10/2015

Ingredients:
– 1/2 cup white sugar
– 1/2 cup water
– 1/2 cup blackberries or 1/2 cup of blueberries
– 3 cups cold water
– 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
– 6 cups of ice cubes
(For a more adult drink, you can also add a pinch of vodka ~ 2 tablespoons)
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook time: 0 minuted
Yield: 6 cups
Instructions for the Homemade Blue Lemonade Recipe:
Start by squeezing out the juice of your fresh lemons using a lemon squeezer. At this point, also add two table spoons of vodka. (Optional)
Next, start to puree the blueberries and blackberries and pour the contents into a strainer when done.
In a sauce pan, add the sugar and a 1/2 cup of water heating in on medium heat until the sugar dissolves (about 5 minutes or so). This will be the base of your lemonade. Remove it from the heat. Stir in the other 3 cups of cold water and the freshly squeezed lemon juice.
TIP #1: In my photo I sugar coated the rim of each glass with colored sugar crystals.
Tip #2: If you are not getting the color you desire for your drink, simple add some food coloring! I like the Wilton food colors because they are vibrant!
Divide the ice between 12 glasses and add a few spoonfuls of puree first, then top with the lemonade. Gently stir it before serving.
Voila! That’s it!
