Living in Los Angeles we get to enjoy a sunny Summer all throughout September, which coincidently is also Hispanic Heritage month! In honor of a warm Summer & Hispanic Heritage month I want to share my favorite Sparkling Ice Classic Lemonade refreshing drink recipe!
I’m partnering with Sparkling Ice to re-create my favorite drink from my hometown in Mexico.
One of my favorite things to do when I visit family in my Mexican hometown is to go to the town’s plaza and have chicken or shredded beef taquitos with all the fixings, accompanied by a tall glass of fizzy lemonade with mint.
I would love watching the vendor prepare my drink in front of me with his vintage citrus press to squeeze fresh lemon juice, then watching him add sugar cane water in the glass, then finally pouring mineral water and watch it fizz to the top. The process was fun to watch and even more refreshing to drink on a dry hot summer in the town’s plaza with my family.
When I first had a taste of Sparkling Ice Classic Lemonade it transported me to that sweet memory and filled me with a huge smile…. and thirst! I instantly knew I could recreate my nostalgic lemonade drink with Sparkling Ice’s Classic Lemonade…I just had to share!
The other really really cool thing I enjoyed about Sparkling Ice, is all the 17 fruit flavors my family & I get to explore and each one of us finding out our favorites! Sparkling Ice is so fun, fruity, fizzy, colorful, playful, and bold!
But the best part about discovering Sparkling Ice is that they are made with zero sugar and combine sparkling water, real fruit flavor, vitamins and antioxidants!! It’s a great tasting lightly carbonated beverage we can all enjoy!
And makes me happy to see my kids enjoy it so much, especially knowing it has zero sugar and it tastes amazing!!
Now for this refreshing drink. The recipe is super simple and super delicious! So let’s get started!
