When we go to Disneyland, we always eat at the famous RainForest Cafe because my kids can’t get enough of it.
They love the fish in the aquarium, the grunting gorillas, and the rainstorms right in the middle.
It is located in Downtown Disney by the Monorail so you can easily leave the park without walking a long ways. The other thing I love about it is the food.
We usually don’t order drinks when we dine out, but I always make an exception when we go here. The Strawberry Lemonade is to die for.
The fresh strawberries in the drink just makes it that much better. Since we don’t live anywhere close to a Rainforest Cafe I made up my own version and I must say, it is pretty darn close.
I may even like it a little better. It’s even more delicious with fresh, home-grown strawberries.
what other fruit could i make this lemonade with?
Give me all the fruity lemonades! I am seriously the biggest lemonade fan. My sisters love their diet coke, but I am all about the fruity goodness, and the sweet tartness of lemonade. It’s also extremely easy to make.
You could easily make this lemonade using any of your favorite fruits. Here are a few that I highly recommend trying:
- mango
- peach
- pineapple
- raspberry
- blackberry
- blueberry
- grapefruit
You could also do a combination of fruits. My husband likes watermelon strawberry lemonade. It is pretty tasty. We also like to make normal lemonade and put a some mint leaf bits in the mix.

That sounds really nice! I love Disneyland!
Mmmm… Sounds delicious!!! Also notice the lovely glassware… Is it a jar or actual drinking glass?
It is actually a jar with a cute design on it.
I saw this on Pinterest and had lemons and strawberries on hand, so decided to try it. It turned out perfect, my kids and I love it!! I’ve tried a few different strawberry-lemonade recipes on Pinterest and this one is the best! I did add a bit more sugar for our taste – 1 & 1/4 cups. Thank you!!
I can’t wait to try this recipe with my kids today! I’ve tried tons of other strawberry lemonade recipes and it never turns out quite right.. This one sounds yummy! 🙂
This looks amazing, can’t wait to try it!
