#12 Pink Lemonrita on a hot day
…so I really wanted to come up with a drink that rocked. Preferably something summery and slightly sweet. The Pink Lemonrita does it all. The key to this drink is a whole lemon. No need to waste all that beautiful sour meat for just the juice. Just take a knife and chop off all the skin. Quarter it only to remove the seeds easier, then throw it straight into the blender.
I also didn’t want to use any simple syrup – who really has that just sitting in their fridge? …powdered sugar will work for this. It blends nicely and doesn’t leave the texture that normal sugar leaves behind.
Pink Lemonrita
1 whole lemon, skinned and de-seeded
1 shot Tequila
1 shot Triple Sec (or other orange liquer)
1 Tbls powdered sugar
1 Tbls grenadine
Blend everything together with about 2 cups of ice. Serves 2 people or 1 very thirsty person. Enjoy!!
