Blue Spirulina Lemonade: A Sip of Summer Vibes 🌊🍋

Okay, Let’s Talk Ingredients

Alright, let’s hit the grocery store like we’re on a mission! 🛒

– First up, blue spirulina powder. This stuff is the secret sauce for that vibrant color. Seriously, it’s like a mood ring in food form!
– Then you need cold water (2 cups, keep it chill, ya know?).
– Fresh lemon juice—get about 2 lemons. Squeeze the life outta ‘em (careful, no seeds please!).
– Grab honey or agave syrup—2 tablespoons. You can totally adjust this part, depending on your sweet tooth.
– Don’t forget ice cubes (like, duh, it’s lemonade!).
– And then, for the finishing touch—lemon slices and fresh mint leaves. These are like the confetti on your summer drink!

So Here’s Why I Make This Constantly

Okay, real talk. I first made this on a super hot day when I was just melting into a puddle on the couch, right? I needed something refreshing and pretty, but my fridge was basically empty—cue a random jar of blue spirulina I’d bought ’cause it looked cool (and healthy!). I didn’t think it would actually taste good, but OMG it was like a beach vacation in a glass. 🍹

I’ve made it for friends, family BBQs, and even my cat’s birthday party (just kidding, but wouldn’t that be cute?). Every time I make it, everyone’s like “Whoa, what’s in this?” and I’m just there like, “Just a little magic, my friend.”

Another beautiful angle of the dish — *Just as gorgeous from this angle too!*

The One Trick That Changes Everything

Okay, let’s talk about whisking. You’ve gotta whisk the spirulina into the water like your life depends on it. Seriously. If you just dump it in and don’t mix it well, you’ll be sipping on some weird clumps. No one wants that! So channel your inner whisking ninja, and get it nice and smooth before adding the lemon juice and honey.

Don’t Mess This Up (My Top Tips)

1. Taste as you go: Seriously, don’t just dump all your honey in. Start with a bit, taste, then add more if you need. It’s way easier to adjust than to fix an overly sweet mess!
2. Use cold water: Warm water? Nope. Not for this drink. We’re going for refreshment, not a hot bath.
3. Garnish, garnish, garnish: Lemon slices and mint make it look fancy and also way more fun to drink. Grab that Instagram pic, my friend!

How to Keep Them From Disappearing (Or, How to Store Them)

Okay, so this lemonade is best fresh, right? But if you have leftovers (which, let’s be real, rarely happens), just stick it in the fridge in a sealed container for a day or two. It’ll still be good, but the color might fade a bit. No biggie! Just give it a little stir before serving again.

If You Liked This, You’ll Probably Like These Too

So, if you loved this lemonade vibe, you’ve gotta try my Mango Chia Pudding (sooo good) or my Coconut Lime Smoothie—both are like summer in a cup! And if you’re feeling adventurous, make my Berry Infused Water. Hydration with a twist, ya know?

Alright, friend! Now I wanna know—what’s your go-to refreshing drink when the weather gets hot? I need some ideas for my next kitchen adventure! 🍹💙
