I found this on pinterest and just had to try it with my family at our annual trip to Sun lakes. It was a huge hit so I needed to share it with all of you. I found this recipe on a great blog called Peace Love and Guacamole I changed the ingredients slightly for my own taste. I personally love Simply Raspberry Lemonade so I added it instead of country time. I also added more alcohol because we didn't feel it was strong enough the first time around. Try it and let me know if you think.
Ingredients
Simply Raspberry Lemonade
5 fresh strawberries sliced
Smirnoff Watermelon Vodka
Triple sec
Malibu Coconut Rum
Directions
Clean an empty container of Simply Lemonade. Using a funnel add 1 1/2 Cups of Watermelon Vodka, 1/3 cup triple sec, and 1/2 cup Coconut rum.
Add sliced strawberries. Then fill the rest with Simple Raspberry Lemonade. Refrigerate and when ready to serve over ice.
I love the name of this juice. Got to make some over the weekend. :)
ReplyDeleteYum, this sounds really good and looks great too! Cool and refreshing! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI'll bet it wasn't strong enough the first time because there's less sugar in the Raspberry Lemonade than in the powdered Country Time... but I'm glad that you and your family liked it! I also like the modification of more rum. You can never go wrong with more rum. Have a good one!!! :)
ReplyDeleteSka, I think you are right. I was hard to tell how it would change the drink and the first time is always a learning experience. My sister said I might not even need the triple sec because it is already sweet enough. That is why I didn't modify the quantity of it. Thanks for coming by and checking it out.
DeleteOh, I bet you that is great!! Thanks for the invite over. I love that they have flavoured vodka now. We are playing around with some drinks at the moment.
ReplyDeleteOh yum, that sounds so wonderful!! I have never tried using watermelon vodka. I made a frozen watermelon drink that that would have gone well with but this one sounds so good with lemonade!
ReplyDeleteWhoa! I'm for sure doing this! That's like summer in a bottle! Yum.
ReplyDeleteHey,
ReplyDeleteI saw this recipe on Pinterest along with recipes from the Food Network, Marie Claire and Martha Stewart Weddings! Pretty damn good company, I'd say! :D
Thanks Providence mine. It is a drink I think you would really enjoy. It is sweet and tart.
