Berry Lemonade

Ingredients:
1 cup water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 vanilla pod
12 ounces mixed frozen berries, thawed
1 can frozen lemonade

Procedure:
1. First make simple syrup by placing granulated sugar & water in a saucepan over a medium heat. While the mixture is heating, cut the vanilla pod through the middle and scrape down the seeds from the inside of the pod and mix it into the sugar and water mixture.
2. Let the mixture boil and then let it simmer until all the sugar dissolved for about 5 minutes. This is the simple vanilla syrup. Let the syrup cool down at the room temperature.
3. Once the syrup has been cooled to room temperature, take the syrup in a blender and blend it together with the thawed berries very well. Add 3 cups of water to the mixture and pulse it again for few seconds incorporate everything together.
4. Serve this chilled lemonade in a martini glass on a hot summer day. Enjoy!
