What Makes Pink Lemonade Pink?

There are a lot of other ways you’ll be able to naturally shade your lemonade pink. On this recipe, I exploit watermelon, which works extraordinarily properly with only a few items of watermelon blended into the lemon juice. If you happen to don’t have watermelon available, one other nice technique to shade it pink is with cranberry juice or some other sort of purple juice you’ve got available. You may additionally mix in one other pink fruit, like raspberries.
