Electric Lemonade

A fun, yummy and thirst-quenching drink. Can be served with a slice of lemon as garnish, or blue colored ice-cubes as I have.
Servings 2 people

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • blue curacao as needed (or a blue food colour)
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 7- Up drink

Instructions
 

  • First, make a simple lemon syrup. Mix 1 cup water with half cup sugar and a pinch of salt, boil until it simmers and the sugar is all dissolved, then turn off and let this syrup cool completely.
  • Add blue colouring, preferably non-alcoholic blue curacao and quarter cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Mix together and adjust until the colour is to your satisfaction.
  • Now add equal amounts of this prepared blue lemon syrup and 7 up. Add ice-cubes or lemon slices and serve chilled! Enjoy! 🙂

Notes

I colored the water I used for the ice-cubes blue to give a more vivid appearance, also used heart shaped ice cube molds for a cuter look
