Time to enjoy summer with an ice cold glass of Sparkling Berry Lemonade.
It’s the start of summer and what better way to cool off than to sip on a ice cold drink while enjoying the summer heat!
I love lemonade and so does my family, the sweet tartness of this drink makes it perfect for relaxing in the sun while reading a good book or chatting with friends.
What are some different ways to enjoy your Sparkling Berry Lemonade ?
Add the lemonade cubes to a tall glass, pour your favorite sparkling water (plain or flavored) and enjoy.
Blend the lemonade cubes in a blender and serve.
Or do a mix of both, add some of the blended lemonade cubes to solid lemonade cubes and top it off with sparkling water.
Add the lemonade ice cubes to your iced tea and enjoy.
How to garnish your sparkling lemonade
Add a slice of a citrus fruit, such as a lemon, lime, or orange.
Garnish with extra berries.
Drop in a few herbs, such as lemon verbena, rosemary, or any of the many varieties of mints.
Place a few different edible flowers in the drink, maybe a little lavender, roses, day lilies, or even the blue violet.

What ingredients are in the lemonade
- Lemonade – The lemonade can be switched to a flavored lemonade of your choice. I personally like the plain lemon lemonade for this drink. Also you can make your own fresh lemonade from scratch, but I like to keep this easy and simple for myself.
- Berries – Any berry will do for your lemonade. I like to use a mix of different berries for my lemonade, such as blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries. Customize the lemonade with seasonal berries near you.
