Finlandia Raspberry Lemonade

Save $6.00 at your local Exchange on a 1.75 liter bottle of Finlandia Vodka through August 31, 2017.

This delicious grown up lemonade can be made in a snap! Not only does it taste decently scrumptious, but it takes no time at all to prepare it. If you have company drop in on you for an unexpected  and spur of the moment gathering (like I did) then this drink is perfect! It is so divine, your guest will never know that you weren’t prepared.  I know my guest couldn’t tell that my husband had forgotten to tell me that we were having company over the evening that I made these.  It is so refreshing that it helps to beat the hot summer days of August, which is the hottest month of the year where we are stationed; even more so this summer!

As always, I remind you to drink responsibly.  Never serve alcoholic beverages to anyone under the legal drinking age.  Also remember the old saying of “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk”!   Have at least 3 plans: Plan A, Plan B and Plan C when it comes to the safety of others on the roads, your friends and yourself, just in case something happens to one of your plans, you have a back up.  Remember that only time can sober a person up, even if they only had a beer or one drink it takes at least an hour per each drink to sober up.  Never get behind the wheel or let someone else if you or they have been drinking, even if they seem okay.  A drink is a drink. Please be Sure to Drink Responsibly.
