Who’s ready to be introduced to their new favorite beverage? My husband and I got the idea for this sparkling limeade recipe from my favorite restaurant in California, Sol food. If you ever find yourself in the city of San Rafael, I 10/10 recommend this spot! The ambiance is so quaint, colorful, and cozy; but it’s definitely the food that will beckon you back time again! (Personally I recommend their “chuletas fritas”, thin cut pan fried pork chops with traditional Puerto Rican rice and beans. That comes with a simple side salad topped with the most amazing in house made dressing!)
This restaurant also serves a delicious sparkling drink that pairs so well with their Puerto Rican cuisine. They won’t reveal their secret recipe with us; but our recipe tastes pretty close to the real thing and we are happy to share it with you! This drink is delicious, refreshing, and super simple to make! The recipe below will fill a large pitcher of approximately 75 oz and serves about 4-6 guests.
Ingredients:
• 1 simply lemonade 52 oz bottle
• 1 can goslings ginger beer 12 oz
• 6 oz or 3/4 cup club soda
• Zest of 1 large lime
• Fresh squeezed juice from 2 limes
• Ice, per your desired amount
Instructions:
• zest your lime and set aside (don’t allow not having a zester hold you back from trying this awesome drink recipe. You can order one here or you can even use a potato peeler. Simply slice off just the zest of the lime and then mince it with a knife)
• In a large pitcher pour in:
⁃ entire bottle off chilled lemonade
⁃ full can of chilled ginger beer
⁃ Chilled club soda
• add ice and lime zest, give it a quick stir
• Serve and enjoy!
