It’s getting hot out there, in fact, this past week we had a blistering hot heat wave in Southern California.
It was so hot that I needed a big pitcher of sparkling watermelon lemonade to cool me down and quench my thirst.
This drink recipe was exactly that I needed.
Homemade lemonade is so easy to make and takes only a few ingredients, and definitely tastes much better (and cheaper!) than store-bought bottles.
I love my lemonade sparkling, so I added seltzer.
Every sip is bubbly, sparkling, sweet, with a nice citrusy note from the fresh lemon.
It was so refreshing!
Stay away from store-bought lemonade and make your own this summer.
You will love it especially if you pair with backyard BBQ and summer foods (check out my summer recipes).
Enjoy your weekend and stay cool!

This looks good. I live in Thailand and one of my favorite drinks is Thaengmo Bun (watermelon shake or smoothee). This is a slight play on that, but I look forwart to trying.
