OLD FASHIONED PINK LEMONADE
I love a tall glass of lemonade in the summertime, and adding grenadine (pomegranate syrup) is what makes it pink and extra special! Pink lemonade just tastes like summer! :D (Photo from alittleloveliness)

Steps:
- 1. Mix the sugar and water in a 2-3 quart pitcher. Add the lemon juice and grenadine when the sugar is completely dissolved. Make adjustments to taste. Some people may need more sugar and lemon, or more water if the taste is too strong. Add the crushed ice and serve! (Extra lemon, if you have some, can be sliced and used to garnish the glasses if desired or just add to the pitcher.) *Note: If making for children, but sure to check the label and choose a brand that does not contain alcohol. Some do, some don't.
Tips:
- Fresh lemons: For the best flavor, use fresh lemons. This recipe calls for 1 cup of lemon juice, which is about 5-6 medium lemons.
- Sugar syrup: To make the sugar syrup, combine 1 cup of sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Add-ins: You can add other ingredients to your lemonade to give it a unique flavor. Some popular add-ins include berries, mint, cucumber, and ginger.
- Chill before serving: For the best flavor, chill your lemonade before serving. You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Old fashioned pink lemonade is a refreshing and delicious drink that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a refreshing drink, give this recipe a try!
