Red, White & Blue Lemonade + Collab with Produce For Kids

Happy July! What is summertime without some refreshing lemonade and tasty snacks?! Today we are sharing how to make a delicious Red, White and Blue Lemonade as well as some yummy and nourishing Avocado Fries with our collab partner Amanda Keefer from Produce for Kids! Avocados are such a great and healthy snack because they provide the body with healthy fats that can keep you satiated between meals. Both of these recipes are quick and easy and one that the kids will love making together!

Red, White & Blue Lemonade

Healthy Grocery Girl

Ingredients
  

  • 4 Limoneira classic lemons
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • ¼ cup blueberries
  • ¼ cup raspberries
  • 2 apples
  • 2-3 skewers
  • Small star cookie cutter

Instructions
 

  • Begin by cutting stars out of your apples. (Use your scraps to make applesauce or apple pie)
  • Add apple stars and berries to each skewer. Let freeze for 3+ hours. Freezing is optional, but I like doing this because it takes the place of ice.
  • Juice lemons into pitcher, add the sugar, boiling water and stir.
  • Fill the pitcher to the top with cold filtered water, 3 cups is ideal.
  • When you are ready to serve, add the frozen skewers and after a few minutes the berries will tint and naturally flavor the lemonade.
