Homemade Pineapple Lemonade Alcohol Free for Friday's Happy Hour


Today we are having Homemade Pineapple Lemonade for Friday's Happy Hour.  I know that we are already into September, but I just couldn't let go of summer yet.  It is still warm and this is a great drink to sit on your back porch and hang out with your family on a Friday afternoon or even a beautiful Sunday.  It's a great family drink and still brings that last little bit of summer into your lives.


Homemade Pineapple Lemonade

Ingredients:

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup boiling water
1 cup fresh lemon juice
8 cups cold water
2 cups fresh or frozen pineapple (thawed) mashed
1/2 cup sugar

Directions:

Put the pineapple in a bowl, put the sugar on top and mash with a potato masher.  We want the juices to mix with the sugar, so that we get a really great pineapple flavor.  Set aside.

Put 1 cup of sugar and 1/2 cup water in a pan on the stove and bring the water to a boil.  Stir until the sugar dissolves.

Next add the cold water and 1 cup of fresh lemon juice.

Next, add the mashed pineapple.

Stir and serve.

I hope that you love this homemade pineapple lemonade as much as we do.  Take your shoes off, put your feet up and relax with this cool delicious drink.

Have a great week.

  2. Sounds so refreshing! I want one right now! Just came from the playground with my granddaughter Cassidy and it was 90 degrees out. We lasted at least 5 minutes! Pinned!

  3. This sounds so good, Debi. I have some leftover chopped pineapple in the freezer that was from a fresh pineapple we could eat quickly enough. I cannot wait to try this recipe with that pineapple! Thanks!
