Nothing more refreshing than a glass of lemonade! This sparkling raspberry lemonade is a tasty twist.
Juicy lemons, pea flower simple syrup and sparking water are all you need to make this beautiful sparkling purple lemonade.
I can’t believe the weather we have been having lately. It has been HOT! It’s been a bit unbearable but it’s much better than the snow that seems to stay around forever. The only thing to do is be grateful and embrace it.
The best way to beat the heat is with something cold and refreshing. Sparkling lemonade is always my go-to. I keep my fridge stocked with a couple things that make having a glass anytime easy and quick – simple syrup and fresh lemon juice. Make it even more special by muddling in some mint and you’ve got yourself something delicious to cool you down.

There is nothing like a refreshing glass of lemonade on a hot day. I watched Michael Smith make this the other day on Chef at Home and have
been thinking about it ever since.
We changed this up a little bit by adding mint and using sparkling water.
Since Q doesn’t like anything fizzy, we divided the mixture into two
containers, making one with still water and one with bubbles. Q was happy to help in the kitchen, juicing all the lemons needed for the lemonade.
This was a very pretty drink to look at, the raspberries making it a
beautiful pink and the strands of lemon zest and pieces of green mint
adding pops of colour.It was tangy and quenched
everyone’s thirst.

Fill a large pitcher or mason jar with ice and add frozen raspberries, lemon zest, juice, mint and sugar. Stir well to dissolve the sugar and fill up with water.
Bright flavours and a shortbread crust make these buttery lemon coconut bars hard to resist!
Bright and sweet, this sunshiny lemon loaf makes the perfect treat. Grab a drink and enjoy this easy recipe.
This Passionfruit Guava drink is like a taste of summer in a glass. Inspired by the pink drink at Starbucks.
This year’s food line up at the Calgary Stampede is filled with big flavours, wacky treats and lots to indulge in.
With only 50 days until the 2019 Calgary Stampede, the list of wacky and wonderful midway food was released today. From the 12″ fries to the octopus lollipop, there is something for everyone.
I had a sneak peek at some of the offerings and they are delish. Check it out!

The Loft Lounge at Granary Road has extended their summer hours on Friday and Saturday nights. Hubby and I enjoyed dinner there this past weekend and it was great going to their after the market had closed.
Granary Road closes at 5:30 but on Fridays and Saturdays, The Loft Lounge is open until 8. That means, even more of an opportunity to check out their Canadiana fare and enjoy award winning beers, wine and hand-crafted cocktails. It was a different vibe being in the space when the market was closed.
