Fun fact this drink has been around for over 1500 years! While the blue raspberry part hasn’t been added until much more recent times, the original recipe was a lemon and honey wine from Egypt. Of course, there are also reports that believe sparkling lemonade was invented in Paris, France in 1676. Lemonade didn’t come to America until 1838 and that recipe included egg whites. So lemonade has been around for a while and gone through many changes over the years.
