Raise your hand if you love a cold, refreshing glass of lemonade! As soon as the temps rise and the sunshine comes out, a great glass of lemonade really hits the spot, especially when you’re able to enjoy it outside on the front porch, or in the backyard with your feet kicked up in a comfortable lawn chair.
Spring and summer is the perfect time for sipping this delicious Sparkling Blackberry Lemonade!
Way better than any powdered mix, this lemonade comes together quickly and easily. It’s as simple as mixing together just a few simple ingredients. You can squeeze individual lemons for the lemon juice, or buy the bottled juice.
This lemonade is also really pretty, as the blackberry puree adds a beautiful purple-pink color to this drink.
This lemonade also works as a fabulous party drink, especially bridal or baby showers, brunches, luncheons, and back yard cookouts!
Serve in simple punch cups, or fancy it up by serving in champagne flutes. You can also make these into cocktails by substituting the ginger ale with champagne! My Strawberry Limoncello Spritzers are also a really fantastic party or brunch cocktail!
Love a refreshing citrus drink? Try my Rosemary Citrus Water, which is a delicious herb and citrus infused drink.
Here’s how this simple, easy and delicious drink comes together:
