Not your kid’s lemonade
Drinks made from lemons and sugar date back to 13th and 14th century Egypt, boomed as a business in 15th century Paris, then bubbled with carbonation in 17th century England. Today, I bring you a boozy twist to history's classic concoction.
Spiked Lemonade
Although it's the perfect beverage for any 4th of July celebration—this is not your kid’s lemonade, so adults only.

Serves 2
1 cup homemade lemonade
¼ cup vodka
¼ cup limoncello*
Ice, for serving
Fresh mint for garnish
In a glass, pour in the lemonade, vodka and limoncello.
Add ice, stir, and serve.
Have a safe and spectacular Independence Day. Remember to drink responsibly.
