Strawberry Lemonade Sugar Cookies









These Strawberry Lemonade Sugar Cookies are so easy and taste amazing! The strawberry and lemon flavors fuse together in both cookie and frosting and combine for an out of this world cookie!





I have a love hate relationship with summer time. It is WAY too hot during the day but I love the warmer evenings. We have been in the 100s a few times these past couple weeks and it is excruciating!



I will occasionally stop by a few lemonade stands on the way home… Although, none beat my Grandma’s BEST EVER Lemonade ;) I don’t know what it is about lemonade that just makes your summer soul jump for joy! Maybe its that it quenches your thirst and is cold and tastes incredible!




Mandi over at Vintage Revivals developed a delicious replica to the famous Swig Sugar Cookie here in Utah. Her recipe is absolutely AMAZING and one I have made many of times. I encourage you all, if you haven’t tried hers yet, to give it a try! You won’t be disappointed. And if you are confused for any reason on how you press the glass into the cookie dough, check out her post as she has step by step pictures of the process that are super helpful :)



This time when I made it though, I wanted to put my own spin on them and give them an exciting summer flavor. I LOVE strawberry lemonade and knew that would be the perfect flavor for these cookies. These cookies were outrageously delicious! I couldn’t stop eating them! Everyone who tried them RAVED about how fresh and tasty they were! If you are looking for that perfect summertime cookie, give these babies a try! You will be SO happy you did!
