LEMONADE PARTY CAKE



Lemonade Party Cake image

I love "poke" cakes during the hot Texas summers. This sounds cool and refreshing. Found on the back of Betty Crocker Super Moist Lemon cake mix. Cook time includes chilling time. Update, I made this today and boy is it cool and refreshing since the temp. here in Texas was 96 today. I had a can of regular frosting and had some Cool-Whip left over from another time so I combined and made a nice creamy frosting.

Tips:

  • Choose the right lemons: Use fresh, ripe lemons for the best flavor. Meyer lemons are a sweeter variety that can also be used.
  • Make a simple syrup: A simple syrup helps to dissolve the sugar and prevents it from crystallizing. To make a simple syrup, combine equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves.
  • Let the lemonade chill: Chilled lemonade is more refreshing and flavorful. You can chill the lemonade for at least 30 minutes before serving, or overnight for even better flavor.
  • Add fresh herbs or fruit: For a fun twist, add fresh herbs like mint or basil, or slices of fruit like strawberries or blueberries to your lemonade.
  • Make it a party: Lemonade is a perfect drink for parties and gatherings. You can make a large batch ahead of time and serve it in a punch bowl or dispenser.

Conclusion:

Party lemonade is a refreshing and flavorful drink that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious lemonade that everyone will love. So next time you're planning a party, be sure to include party lemonade on your menu!
