Summer Sippers: Louisiana Lemonade


Summer is the ideal time to relax with family and friends whether you have a porch, deck, balcony or a swing out in the back yard.  

If you enjoy entertaining and choose not to heat up your kitchen, an evening of summertime sippers is the way to go. 

I’m sharing some cool drinks that we’ve enjoyed for years. After searching the internet, I found several that will definitely have a repeat performance on our deck this summer.  

I haven’t forgotten the kids or those who don’t want alcohol. There’s just something about slicing open a fresh pineapple and taking the blender out of the cabinet that will bring the kids running. 

We'll start with Louisiana Lemonade.


The ingredients were listed for the drink on a card on the table. Thankfully, Sweet Harold snapped a picture of the ingredients. Once we returned home, he experimented until he was pleased with the proper amount for the simple ingredients. 

2 oz. Bacardi Limon 
Homemade or purchased lemonade 
Grenadine 
Lemon wedge for garnish 

Pour Limon into an ice-filled Collins glass. Fill with lemonade and stir. Slowly add ½ oz. Grenadine. Do not stir. Garnish with a lemon wedge.
