Lemonade

- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 4 oz of lemon-flavored vodka
- 1/2 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
Mix the sugar and water in a small pot and boil to make a simple syrup. Let cool. Add 1/2 cup simple syrup, lemon juice, vodka and lemon zest. Stir together and serve. For a twist, pour ingredients into ice cube trays, add raspberries, sprig of mint or a slice of lemon (rind included) and freeze.
Blend cubes together in a blender.
