Homemade lemonade is my all-time favorite summer drink. When I made my favorite recipe and posted a photo of it on Flickr a few years ago, it quickly became one of my most popular photographs. It’s nearing 10,000 views!
I also made this lemonade for a baking party I hosted a year or so later; everyone loved it.
I can’t remember where I got the recipe from, but I think it’s definitely a winner!
