Strawberry Lemonade

No, this isn't a pumpkin spice latte.  I know fall is right around the corner and we're ALL ready for hayrides and riding boots but at the end of each season, I feel this sudden rush to savor a few last things.  For instance, right now I need to have gazpacho one last time.  I need to wear flip flops 24/7.  I need a bright pedicure.  (True story.)  This strawberry lemonade is part of that insanity.  Please forgive me.  I'm pretty sure once you mix this up, you'll wish summer would stick around a little longer too.

//  Ingredients //

1 can frozen lemonade concentrate (I like Minute Maid)
1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries, stems removed
water

// Instructions //

1.  Puree strawberries in a blender or food processor.  Then strain strawberry puree through a fine mesh strainer.  (This will remove any large seeds.)  Set aside.

2.  Make lemonade according to package directions.  Then add strawberry puree.  Stir and chill for 30 minutes.  Serve over ice and enjoy.



Strawberry Lemonade Smash

As I was leaving the yoga studio last night around 8:30, the sun was still shining and I couldn't help but think that long summer nights were meant to be savored with a cocktail in hand.  I created the strawberry lemonade smash with summer in mind and shared it over at Society Social earlier this week.  It's goooood.  Yummy, warm summer night good!  Swing by for the recipe and start sipping just in time for the weekend!

Weekend Cheers: 12 Cocktails of 2012


Hi friends!  How was your holiday?  Our Christmas was spent with family and I can't wait to begin the second round of festivities when my little sister arrives from Baltimore tomorrow.  We still have a lot of celebrating to do and of course the new year is just around the corner.  There are few things I love more than ringing in a new year.  Who's with me?

It's kinda become our tradition around here on Fridays to toast the weekend with a new cocktail but today I want to reflect on some concoctions I shared around the blogesphere in 2012.  It's nice to have them all bundled up like this in one place so I hope you'll enjoy the recap.  Of course, all my other cocktail creations that we've enjoyed here on YSP can be found in the recipe file above for quick reference.

I hope you enjoy your weekend! Come visit me here on Monday for a delicious recipe to kick off the new year southern style.  It's sure to bring you health and prosperity in 2013.
