Still Make Lemonade Taste Like a Summer Day


I was listening to one of my favorites by Dave Matthews Band, American Baby, and suddenly felt compelled to write about lemonade. Beyond margaritas, piña coladas, daiquiris and iced/sweet tea, lemonade is the beverage I enjoy the most. Just looking at the sunny butter- yellow stuff with a whimsy lemon wheel twirling around the inside of the drink can't help but make one happy! Apparently lemonade originated in Egypt, an unlikely location for such a seemingly American drink, but hey- the Egyptians were way ahead of their time with architecture, celestial activity, and embalming techniques, so why couldn't they whip up the world's perfect summer cocktail? Sounds like a plan to me =)
