While warm days might still seem far away, they are closer than you think. Make this cucumber lemonade for a gathering with friends and family or just because. Tangy lemons and refreshing cucumbers give this a nice flavor and there is a splash of grapefruit juice in there too. This is easily my favorite new drink and possibly the best I have ever had when it comes to lemonade.
Once you start making fun lemonade flavors, you will never do plain lemonade again.
