Maybe its because I live in Los Angeles where almost everything is acceptable… but recently, just this summer in fact, with the help of a few of my local friends (you know who you are) I have discovered how wonderful everything can be with a little cocktail every once in a while in the middle of the afternoon on a day off. I always thought it was weird that people who have wine with lunch, or mimosas with brunch… but now I realize just how wonderful a great little concoction can be when shared with a handful of good friends on a random afternoon.
Just this past weekend a friend of mine gave me about 10 pounds of lemons from their tree. I went right home and make Strawberry Basil Lemonade, because really, what else is better than that. But then I still had about 1/2 of the lemons left so I racked my brain and decided to make Balsamic Lemonade cocktails. They rival the strawberry basil lemonade too… they are just that good!
Recently we have had great weather down in sunny So Cal… its been warm and sunny and perfect beach weather. I don’t know about you… but a crisp cool and refreshing cocktail is the perfect way to cool down on a summer day. And this Balsamic Lemonade with a hit of Vodka did just the job!
