Chick-Fil-A doesn’t quite blanket the Chicagoland area like it does much of the country, but there are a few here and there. If you’ve ever been there and had a chance to try the frosted lemonade, you already know why it’s on the list. It’s a delicious combination of soft-serve ice cream and Chick-Fil-A’s famous lemonade.<\/p>\n This copycat recipe<\/a> can be made in your kitchen in about 10 minutes. All you need is lemon juice, vanilla ice cream, sugar, water, and (optional) sliced lemons.<\/p>\n Agua Fresca is a popular category of beverage consisting of fruit juices and purees mixed with water. It is usually sweetened beyond just the sugars in the fruit, but this sophisticated version<\/a> doesn’t even need it. All you need is pineapple, mint leaves, and water. Toss them all in a blender, and you’re good to go!<\/p>\n Not sweet enough for you? That’s easy to fix. Drizzle some honey or agave into the blender and pulse a few more times.<\/p>\n Popsicle Punch is a genius way to jazz up a party punch. For the punch itself, mix lemonade, lemon-lime soda, seltzer, cubed mangos, and sliced strawberries. This already sounds like a pretty good party punch, and it is. The fun addition here is the popsicle ice cubes. You can use store-bought to save time, or you can go ultra gourmet by making your own in any flavor. Here’s a recipe<\/a> to get you started.<\/p>\n Whatever your summer entertaining plans include, you can make them even better by using one of these three great summer drink ideas.
