MISS AIMEE B'S LEMONADE

Steps:

• Wash lemons, cut off ends and quarter. Squeeze juice into a glass bowl.
• In blender, coarsely chop lemons (do not puree). Add chopped lemons to juice. Add sugar, stir well and let sit 30 minutes. Add milk; stir well. Cover; refrigerate several hours (I thought it would curdle and it doesn't).
• Strain mixture. In a glass, combine 1/2 cup lemonade mixture, 1/2 cup club soda and ice. Stir well. Add vodka or gin.

SPARKLING SUMMER LEMONADE

Steps:

• Pour the sugar and 1 cup water into a small pot and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat and add the mint sprigs. Let the mint steep for 10 minutes, then discard the mint.
• Add the mint simple syrup to a large pitcher, punch bowl or serving canister. Add the lemon juice, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries and lemon wheels and give a good stir. When ready to serve, fill the pitcher halfway with ice. Top the mixture with seltzer and give a good stir. Serve over ice with sprigs of fresh mint.
