Yes, today’s Food Friday is all about “Grown-Up Cocktails” (so if you wanted to see a food recipe, come back next week *laughs*). And I absolutely love this Blackberry Lemonade recipe from the amazing blog, with the cute name, The Pastry Affair. This particular drink doesn’t have any alcohol in the ingredients (which is perfect for me), but I’m sure you can pair these flavors with some wonderful alcoholic choices.. so tell me some of your choices below. View the ingredient list below and click the link for the recipe. Happy Friday
Blackberry Lemonade

Oh, this also looks great. My choice would be the white spirits, a little drop of gin, or a dash of vodka…or maybe even a decadence of Grand Marnier….that swizzle stick is stirring!LOL! x

Looks refreshing! Never had it with blackberry…definitely a nice twist from the usual raspberry.

Yet more delicious looking cocktails, the blackberry addition sounds – one of my favourite fruits.

This looks so refeshing and beautiful for Mother’s Day! Would be delightful with a light lunch or an afternoon reading on the deck.

I absolutely love blackberries. This seems like the perfect drink to enjoy with a group of friends on a patio on a hot summer’s day. Thanks for sharing. Hope you’re having a fabulous weekend.

This looks like another great drink Kay! I love, love, love blackberries as you know. Happy weekend!

Been a warm day here. I could do with that now
#18 by aterlycan on May 12, 2012 - 9:35 PM
looks tasty
#19 by yummychunklet on May 13, 2012 - 12:57 AM
Ooh, what great color!
#20 by Bam's Kitchen on May 13, 2012 - 5:24 AM
Refreshing and beautiful and a splash of vodka would not go bad here…
#21 by jvlivs on May 13, 2012 - 11:17 AM
That sounds delicious! I’d ad just a touch of vodka, or some champagne (or even both). My ex-girlfriend is allergic to blackberries, so that’s even better for me (LOL)!
#22 by Rufus' Food and Spirits Guide on May 13, 2012 - 12:56 PM
That looks wonderful!
#23 by Just A Smidgen on May 13, 2012 - 11:19 PM
I think I’d love it just the way it is!
