Spot the whoopsie! in this recipe for Fizzy Sour Cherry Lemonade:
We've spiked this lemonade with vodka to make a refreshing summer cocktail, but you can omit the alcohol. One batch will completely fill your blender, so if you need more, make multiple batches rather than doubling or tripling the recipe.

* 2 lbs fresh or thawed frozen sour cherries (1 qt), stemmed
* 1 cup fresh lemon juice
* 3/4 to 1 cup sugar
* 6 large eggs
* 1 1/2 cups vodka (optional)
* 2 to 3 cups chilled sparkling water

:D

3. Ding!
The rest:

Blend cherries (including pits) in a blender at low speed until skins have broken down enough to brightly color liquid (some of pits will be coarsely chopped). Pour through a sieve into a 2-quart pitcher, pressing on and discarding solids. Add lemon juice and sugar (to taste), stirring until sugar is dissolved.

Pour 3 tablespoons vodka (if using) into each of 8 tall (10-ounce) glasses filled with ice. Add 1/2 cup cherry lemonade to each and top off with sparkling water.


:rofl:

I wanna make this :9

2. Maybe if you were making custard.
But then the fizzy would be wrong.

9. Yeah, that's the plan.
Think it would work if I replaced the cherries with strawberries? Because they're tastier and I already have those, haha.
