06.09.20 Lemonade Berry

If you want to make a drink that looks like it came straight out of the Star Wars Cantina, look no further than the lemonade berry bush that is likely growing in your neighborhood. The berries are quite sappy but they have a sharp lemony kick that makes a freshening drink on a day that is way too hot for early June. I steeped the berries in boiling water for 10 minutes, allowed them to cool, added a squeeze of lime for good measure and a few drops of monk fruit.
