Cherry Lemonade
Description
This refreshing drink will be perfect not only for weekdays but also for festive occasions, especially if someone's birthday falls in summer, in June or July. In any case, you can make the lemonade using frozen cherries, provided you remove the pits beforehand and freeze them in the freezer. The drink is ready to serve.
