I originally saw a recipe for fresh lemonade in Real Simple magazine that included some ways to make homemade lemonade cocktails. I will make lemonade from scratch at some point, but I used Trader Joe's low cal Lemonade (100% organic).
The magazine's recipe for a Thyme and Lime Lemonade makes enough for four, and it suggests letting it sit in the refrigerator for at least one hour. Who can wait that long? Here's how to make this recipe on the fly, for one person:
Ingredients: One shot of vodka, two shots of lemonade, two wedges of lime and five sprigs of fresh thyme. Club soda (optional)
Mash together the lime and the thyme. I used a mortar and pestle.
Add the lime and thyme to a glass with ice, and add the lemondade and vodka. Add a splash of club soda if you like a bit of fizz.
Stir it up and prepare to pucker up. It's perfectly sweet and tart.
