Strawberry Lemonade

Just in time for those hot summer days, I'm making a batch tonight because my mom gave me a bunch of lemons off her tree!
Ingredients:
1 Quart Water
1 Cup Sugar
1 Cup FRESH Lemon Juice
sparkling water (not tonic water, like Perrier)
Strawberries - about 1 small container or your preference *raspberries, blueberries, blackberries*
Preparation:
Mix first three together. Puree the fruit with a little powdered sugar and put into the bottom of glass. Fill the tall glass 2/3 with lemon mixture and then fill with sparkling water.
Enjoy!

Banana Colada

This is a great treat on hot days!

Ingredients:
4 bananas--peeled, sliced, and frozen
1 cup pineapple juice
1 (14 oz) can cream of coconut
1 fluid ounce rum

Directions:
In an electric blender, combine bananas, pineapple juice, cream of coconut, and rum. Blend until the mixture reaches your desired consistency.

If bananas are not frozen, just add some ice!
