COCKTAILS AT SIX: FROZEN (COCONUT RUM!) LEMONADE

lemonade

Wool, corduroy & (yikes!) school supplies are filling the retail shelves at a much too rapid pace for my taste. Even if the days are subtly getting shorter, sipping on frozen lemonade will draw out the weekend, and season, until you are truly ready to let it go in lieu of those falling leaves and cardigans. As an added plus, you can have this grown-up take on lemonade stand refreshment ready to go in just a matter of minutes...

Frozen Lemonade (with a dash of!) Coconut Rum
  • 9 cups ice cubes, crushed
  • 9 oz. frozen lemonade concentrate (roughly 18 Tbsp.)
  • 3/4 cup coconut rum
  • lime wedges & fresh mint sprigs for garnish
Pour about 1/3 each of ice, lemonade, and rum into a blender. Blend until slushy. Pour into glasses & garnish with lime wedges & a sprig of fresh mint. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Serves 6.


Cheers to another wonderful weekend,
Shelly (of le happy)
