Since I'm out with the old, I guess it follows suit to be in with the new - so I've decided to jazz up some lemonade to celebrate summer. I don't use a specific ratio, as it's best to adjust to your liking and taste. Some may want a more boozy lemonade, some may want a more lemony lemonade. It's up to you. (Sorry for the measurers out there, it's just not my thing.)
Jazzy Lemonade
lemonade
white wine
mint water*
Think of this as summer's everyday answer to the mimosa. It feels best right alongside a stack of magazines, (or in my case - a Kindle filled with magazine content), freshly painted toenails, and sunshine on your shoulders... you get the picture. So, raise a glass to summer!
*mint leaves steeped in a very small amount hot water, then chilled. I like to include this as it dilutes the insane sweetness of store-bought lemonades. If you make your own and adjust the sugar to your liking, this step isn't as necessary.

You can wear jeans to work? I totally want your job! :)
...and I want this drink. I've got a pitcher of watermelon lemonade chilling in the fridge, and I love the idea of adding white wine and mint water. Stay cool in Seattle!
Jeans - yes! It's Amazon :) I wore a skirt and dress pants for a while, but I just couldn't stand feeling out of place anymore. It's a very casual, yet hardworking, place!
Watermelon lemonade - ooh! Did you make this or buy it? If the latter - whereabouts?
I'm seriously jonesing for some white wine and I love the drink and its name. I want some of that :)
