Hi Tammy, here is my Moms version of a quick and easy summer drink instead of Lemonade, try this 3 citrus cooler. Use one each of the small cans of frozen Lemonade, Tangerine, and Limeade juices. (I use pink lemonade but use whatever is handy!) Add about 1/2 a can less water per item than the can instructions indicate, and then load the pitcher up with ice cubes. OR if you make this ahead, add water as per can instructions, then freeze some of the prepared drink to add back in as ice cubes!
