Lemonade Day

Lemonade has been around for a long time. Although it is not my favorite drink, a lot of people love to have a cool glass of lemonade on a warm day. So lets learn some fun facts about this drink!

- The first lemonade “soft drink” debuted in Paris on August 20th, 1630. The drink was made from sparkling water and lemon juice sweetened with honey.

-  Frozen lemonade made its debut in 1840 in Naples, Italy.

- The earliest documented lemonade stands were introduced by a young entrepreneur named Edward Bok who formed them in Brooklyn street cars from 1873 to 1876.

- The “ade” in lemonade means that the product is not 100 percent juice.

-  Grape juice is added plain lemonade to make commercial pink lemonade.

So enjoy a glass of lemonade today!
