Lemonade is just an American classic, kinda like Apple Pie!
Summer picnics, especially celebrating our great Country’s Independence day just screams for a cold glass of lemonade. I like a little bubbly with my drinks so this is a classic lemonade but with the added touch sparkling water.

There is nothing better on a hot summer day than a cold glass of lemonade! I love the addition of sparkling water! :)
