A drink recipe to help you beat the heat
Listening to the news this morning made me realize that summer is finally here! It looks like there is a heat wave working its way across the country, 90 degrees in Maine? Yes, please! When the temperature rises and the humidity sets in, sometimes all you want is a refreshing drink to cool you down. Today is the perfect day for a lemonade, specifically a Raspberry Lemonade! Drinks, such as this, are so easy to make from scratch, and so much more refreshing then what you can purchase pre-made at the store. Add a little mint for an extra touch! Do you have a favorite drink you go to when the weather gets hot?
