Today
is National Lemonade Day!
Now, I don’t want to seem radical or anything, and
perhaps you might even want to sit down, but Wikipedia states that lemonade is “a lemon-flavored drink.” Whoa! But here’s where it seriously gets
tricky…there are two different types of lemonade (seriously!) – an American
version, consisting of “squeezed lemon juice, water, and sugar,” while the
British version “is a commercially-produced, lemon-flavored, carbonated,
sweetened soft drink.” It is believed that lemonade
first made an appearance in Egypt sometime in the 10th century.
There isn’t really any solid information on the origins of this thirst
quenching drink, but I’ll buy into whatever evidence I can find! If it’s a
scorcher of a day out there today, then may you fill your bladder with copious
amounts of fresh made lemonade!
And
you know what they say; when life gives you lemons, vote on the daily poll! You
