Sparkling Strawberry Mint Lemonade Recipe


Sparkling Strawberry Mint Lemonade Recipe
I served this at a summer-time gathering and it was a big hit. I had a bumper crop fresh mint and this helped to keep the population in check. The recipe originally came from "Festive Picnics" by Pamela Sheldon jons and Jennifer Barry.
