How to make Ginger Beer Lemonade:
Squeeze fresh lemon juice into a pitcher.
Add sugar and water, and stir until the sugar dissolves.
Pour in a bottle of ginger beer.
And that’s your Ginger Beer Lemonade! It has just 3 ingredients + water. And if you’re a college student who is having a hankering for your first beer, this is the recipe for you! ha ha ha 🙂
My taste tester 10 year old (hard at work on homework) thought this was a nice, chilly and delicious version of lemonade. He preferred his with a little more sugar than is indicated in the recipe. I enjoyed mine a little more tart tasting. It’s good stuff. Basically your basic lemonade with a little bit of added bubbly ginger. If you prefer to have a little cocktail, you might like to try one of my Fruity Vodka Spritzers instead.
