And sometimes recipes like these can become greater things.

Over the summer we had a yard sale and my son wanted to make a little extra money, so I suggested he sell lemonade. But not just any lemonade. I have always thought simple lemonade was just a little plain for my taste. So one day when I was making homemade lemonade for the kids, I decided a strawberry lemonade sounded delicious. Making that strawberry lemonade set a ton of ideas into motion for my son’s lemonade stand. He offered an original lemonade as well as a pear lemonade and mango lemonade that we’d thought up together. Now you would think that the original would be the biggest hit. It wasn’t. The mango lemonade was favored by everyone and sold out quickly.

This really got my 14 year old to thinking, what if he offered different flavored lemonades in the summer months at out local farmer’s market? It’s amazing what kids can create from a simple all natural product. Now whether he’ll really do it is another story, but it did lead to him running from Treasurer at school in Drama Club. And just think, it all started with a unique Lemonade Stand.
