Summer Blackberry Lemonade

Ahhhh… summer is almost upon us guys! Looking forward to the scorching sun, the cute little squeals from the neighborhood’s bike riding kiddos, the kaploosh of family and friends diving into the backyard pool and that afternoon ice cream truck jingle that I can’t help but to dance and sing along with!! {Sorry for the run on but I’m excited!}

But don’t you just love summer though? I thought I’d kick it off with this delicious Summer Blackberry Lemonade. Oh how I love blackberries!! It’s definitely my berry of choice and it’s a perfect addition to this refreshing lemonade.

Summer Blackberry Lemonade

Wow! Glad I love ’em so much then! This refreshing Summer Blackberry Lemonade was a big hit with the family this weekend as it was gone just as fast as I made it. It makes over a couple quarts but I think my family was just super parched! 🙂 Speaking of refreshment and restoring strength, I’m so grateful to know that I can go to God and be refreshed by His presence [restoring (me) like a cool wind on a hot day] according to Acts 3:19 (AMP). Seek Him for your refreshment daily! Say Grace and enjoy!!
