Nothing says summer like a cool, delicious and refreshing drink! My favorite summer drink is a watermelon, cucumber, basil, lemonade recipe, made with simple ingredients and no added sugar.
Now, I have an even better way to enjoy this tasty summertime treat: Midwest Magic Tonics! I’m looking forward to mixing these tonics into my summer drinks and sipping away poolside – so easy to make, and so refreshingly delicious!
