Not So "Hard" Lemonade

I love trying new food and drink recipes, especially when they're not so hard to make. That's why I love BettyCrocker.com. They always have fun, unique ideas and they're recipes usually aren't too complicated. A new favorite drink recipe I discovered recently was their Not So "Hard" Lemonade. It's a play on words because it uses alcoholic or "hard" lemonade but it's a super simple recipe!

Ingrediants:
3 orange slices, each cut in half
3 lemon slices, each cut in half
3 small strawberries, each cut lengthwise in half
6 green grapes
A 6-pack of lemon malt beverage, chilled
1/3 cup grenadine syrup

 Step 1: Slice up the fruit and remove any seeds from the lemon and orange slices

Step 2: In ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan, place orange slices, lemon slices, strawberry halves and grapes in single layer. Freeze at least 2 hours until fruit is frozen.

Step 3:  When ready to serve, pour malt beverage into each of 6 tall glasses. Drizzle 1 tablespoon grenadine syrup into each glass. Place orange slice, lemon slice, strawberry half and grape in each glass.

This drink is so refreshing! I'm not a big fan of Mike's Hard Lemonade by itself, but adding the grenadine and fresh fruit makes a world of difference! I just discovered this at the end of the summer but I look forward to sipping this while soaking up the sun in the future! I'm sure you can test out different kinds of fruit to slice up and freeze for variety and for a non-alcoholic version, just use regular lemonade!
