Happy virtual baby shower baby virtual shower baby virtual day!

We all made you things that have lemons in them. Because your site is called The Lemon Bowl. And because you like lemons. And having babies. But not at the same time. Or maybe at the same time? No one will ever really know.

Hey, did your store ever get lemons back in stock? I mean, what GROCERY STORE is out of lemons for like, weeks at a time? What kind of world do we live in where this sort of wonky tonk happens?! WHAT KIND OF LIFE IS THIS?

I swear I’m getting to the drink.

Right after this next part.

WHAT KIND OF EXISTENCE ARE WE BEING SUBMITTED TO?

Okay, so check this out. These spritzers aren’t even spicy, so your baby man’s gonna dig it. All it is is fresh lemon juice, seeded jalapenos and chilled seltzer! Das it! I like things that take .0234872 seconds. It’s good for us pregnaleelaalaa ladies.

Liz, I’m SO excited for you and the upcoming arrival of your little milk sucker. Don’t be surprised when I text you in the middle of the night bawling because I can’t figure how to get them to “latch on.”

The men readers are like, “okay I’m out.”

Also, let’s meet soon. This is getting dumb.

CONGRATS!

Lemon Jalapeno Spritzers:

 What it took for 4 cups:

  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice (strained of any seeds and pulp)
  • 4 small jalapeno peppers, seeded
  • 3 cups chilled seltzer

Combine the lemon juice and jalapenos in a food processor. Blitz until  it’s all combined and greenish and gorgeous.

Pour into a pitcher and add the seltzer. Stir and serve!

Garnish with jalapeno slices to be cool.

    It's like every pregnant girl's dream! Sour and spicy all in one drink. ;-) I hope your two kiddies are treating you well while you're pregnant, Bev! It was a pleasure bringing goodies to the baby shower with you!

    I seriously want to drink the entire pitcher of this right now!!!!! I also love that you referred to my baby as a milk sucker. You seriously crack me up, I can't handle it. Thank you for coming to my shower!!! And you're right, we seriously need to meet. It's just stupid.
  11. Meagan @ A Zesty Bite October 14, 2013 at 10:45 am #
    Oh man these spritzers look AMAZING and perfect for Liz and the milk sucker!
  12. Ruthy @ Omeletta October 14, 2013 at 11:29 am #
    i'm still sitting over here, laughing at "milk suckers" < /mature. But for reals, this looks delicious and just the ticket for a baby shower. What a sweet surprise!
  13. Gwen @simplyhealthyfamilly October 14, 2013 at 12:01 pm #
    HOLY perfect spritzer! I'm a south west girl who loves all things spicy and tangy. This is all kinds of perfect, wait, is there vodka in it? No? Well, that can be fixed ;} Our stores were out of lemons or they cost an arm and a leg for a while. Must have been a freeze or something.
  14. Gwen @simplyhealthyfamilly October 14, 2013 at 12:02 pm #
    BaaaaaHaaaaa "Your baby man's gonna dig it." Classic.
  15. Lauren @ Climbing Grier Mountain October 14, 2013 at 12:32 pm #
    Dude, this spritzer is fan-freaking-tastic! Love the jalapeno addition!
  16. Sandy Coughlin October 14, 2013 at 2:16 pm #
    How fun are these?! Love it. Thanks for participating!
  17. Erin L October 14, 2013 at 5:23 pm #
    These look delicious, but my mouth is puckering something awful. Would it be a sacrilege to add a little sugar?
  18. Paula - bell'alimento October 14, 2013 at 7:31 pm #
    I kind of love these and you and Liz and lemons.
  19. Sheila October 14, 2013 at 8:59 pm #
    OOO doggy dems some good sippin'! Thanks for taking part in our wee surprise for Liz!
  20. Laurie {Simply Scratch} October 14, 2013 at 10:12 pm #
    I LOVE the color of this spritzer! Such a perfect bevy!
  21. Heather October 14, 2013 at 10:58 pm #
    This is a fantastic idea for the extra jalapenos I have sitting in my kitchen right now (it sounds so odd - but seriously, we have extras from a dinner this weekend!). I made a raspberry frozen lemonade over the summer and it was fantastic - so tangy because we hardly added a tablespoon of sugar to the pitcher. Can't wait to try these spritzers!
  22. Amanda October 15, 2013 at 6:41 am #
    Seriously awesome!! Plus your pictures are just gorgeous. Love everything about this!
  23. Marnely Rodriguez-Murray October 15, 2013 at 7:04 am #
    totally need this drink in my life!
  24. Erin @ Texanerin Baking October 15, 2013 at 12:19 pm #
    Oooh, I'm now going to refer to babies as little milk suckers. So much cuter! :) And I love the green color! So pretty.
  25. Deborah October 15, 2013 at 12:43 pm #
    A grocery store without lemons would pretty much be a tragedy for me! I'm totally digging this spicy/sweet combo!
  26. Lail | With A Spin October 15, 2013 at 1:42 pm #
    A stunning drink!
  27. Julie @ Table for Two October 18, 2013 at 11:22 am #
