Spring is finally here. I know very well that waiting for weekend, vacations, spring or summer is always a waste of time and life and that we should embrace every moment and seize the day, but I can’t control the happiness I feel when I see the blue sky, white flowers and feel the mild wind on my face. So, I’m sorry for wasting my life waiting, but dear spring, I missed you so much, thank you for coming!
Spring brings us lots of strawberries that I love so much so I’m trying to use them in every recipe I can. I usually put them in healthy smoothies and cakes but this time I tried to mix them with one of my favourite drinks, lemonade.
I start every day with a glass of lemonade with honey which is really healthy and tasty so I’m not going to change this habit anytime soon. I sometimes add some cayenne pepper or ginger to this mixture and some fresh mint leaves. So, as an experienced lemonade lover, I decided to add some colour to my usual lemonade and change the way I see the world.
As a result I got a tasty and pretty pink drink which became a favourite drink in my home and I’ll continue to make it as long as I can buy strawberries. So if you are in the mood for a lemonade, try this one, you’ll love it.
