Equipment

  • Gather a pitcher for easy mixing and serving.
  • You'll also need a sharp knife for cutting the fruits: a knife that can slice through citrus easily is key.
  • A cutting board helps to keep things tidy.
  • Grab a citrus juicer to get the most juice from your lemons.
  • If you prefer a smoother drink, you might want a fine mesh strainer to remove pulp or seeds.
  • Finally, have a few tall glasses ready for serving. Don't forget a fun straw or two! 🌟

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to create Cupid's Pink Lemonade Mocktail:

  • 4 cups of lemonade store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup of cranberry juice for that rosy tint
  • 1-2 tablespoons of simple syrup or to taste
  • 1 lemon sliced thinly
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnishing 🌿
  • Ice cubes to chill it down

These ingredients are inexpensive and easy to find. The simple syrup adds a touch of sweetness that balances the tart flavors.

Instructions

  • Start by filling your pitcher with the lemonade and cranberry juice.
  • Give it a good stir so the flavors blend. 🍹
  • Add the simple syrup for sweetness. If you like it sweeter, feel free to add a little more. Mix again till everything's combined.
  • Toss in the lemon slices into the pitcher. They give a fresh citrusy punch.
  • Drop in some ice cubes to cool it down before serving.
  • Pour the mix into glasses and garnish each with fresh mint leaves.

Enjoy the refreshing taste of this cute pink drink! Don't forget to add a fun straw or an umbrella.

    Notes

    I love how versatile this mocktail can be!
    You can adjust the sweetness by changing the amount of simple syrup.
    If you prefer, try using sparkling water instead of regular lemonade for a fizzy twist. 💫
    For a more pronounced citrus flavor, add a splash of fresh lime juice.
    Feel free to get creative with fruit garnishes like sliced strawberries or raspberries.
    This drink is perfect for gatherings, parties, or just a relaxing afternoon at home.
