Happy Monday! Here is a cocktail to get you in the mindset for the weekend ahead. Which is not really very close as you have a work week ahead ~ but let’s just dream of all the relaxation to come when you sip on Tipsy Lemonade Iced Tea…
Traditionally an iced tea & lemonade combo is known as an Arnold Palmer. My tipsy version has Grey Goose Le Citron (lemon) vodka.
Which is way more fun in my opinion.
Today a group of wonderful bloggers have come together to celebrate the baby shower for Liz from the blog The Lemon Bowl.
We all created recipes that use … guess what? Lemons!
Liz is having a baby boy…a big shout & congrats to her & her family.
She can drink this without the alcohol at her shower. I on the other hand will celebrate with the Goose…

Pinned. I’ll take a few, please! I love tea + lemonade (arnold palmers) and with vodka (Citron) even better! We could get into some trouble with these!
Averie, you and I could get into lots of trouble with lots of things 😉
Divinely boozy!
Cheers,
Rosa
I love a good lemon iced tea and making it tipsy, bring it on! 😉 So refreshing and such a great way to chill out and enjoy all of these wonderful goodies! It was a pleasuring bringing treats to Liz’s shower with you, Marla!
Indeed a fun party! Your macarons are stunning and look delicious 🙂
Downright perfect! I will be keeping this recipe handy for sure!
You know us so well, Marla! Definitely need on (or two!) of these!! 🙂
Wish I could have one right now 😉
I’m gutted that I just found this on Monday, it would have been phenomenal this weekend where the last remnants of Summer/Autumn were still around here in London. Will definitely keep this recipe in mind though for the next party! Looks delicious!
Awesome Nicole ~ at least you found it to bookmark for sunnier days 😉
Oh, this looks absolutely delicious. Your photos are always so stunning! So fun to be doing this baby shower with you!
