Bourbon and Honey Raspberry Lemonade

Last week the little neighbor kids set up a lemonade stand at the end of the block. The overly sweet lemonade was refreshing on a hot summer day, but I kept thinking it needed a little something extra… bourbon perhaps?

This bourbon spiked raspberry lemonade has all the fresh, fruity flavors of summer packed into one boozy glass. This is the kind of lemonade I’d sell if I opened up a neighborhood lemonade stand.
