The last week in New York has been a scorcher with temperatures in the 90s almost everyday. When the weather gets this hot, it makes me crave lemonade. It’s so refreshing and to me is the quintessential summer drink. I like to make it at home following this easy recipe. To take it up a notch then, I add some fresh mint and serve with ice cubes frozen with blueberries and mint.
