When I was attending the Wilmington Blue Rocks game last month<\/a> I wanted something to drink. A beer. I wanted a beer.<\/p>\n

But the line moved slower than molasses through mud, and something else caught my eye.<\/p>\n

Blue Lemonade. It wasn’t any more expensive than a beer, and it came in a collector’s cup. Not only would it quench my thirst, but I’d have a souvenir. That settled it.<\/p>\n

And it was good!<\/p>\n

I could only vaguely remember the ingredients — vodka, lemonade, Sprite — and then the men’s restroom had the recipe on the wall over one of the urinals \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I decided to make it for Memorial Day weekend. It seems like a good summertime drink, something that would scale up easily for for parties and cookouts.<\/p>\n

Blue Lemonade<\/b>
\nHalf gallon lemonade
\n24 ounces 80 proof vodka (the Blue Rocks recipe uses Dogfish Head Analog Vodka<\/a>)
