Are you planning a Labor Day cook-out? It's a great way to bring the summer to an end. What better way to celebrate than with Southern favorites that are both refreshing and comforting? You can't have a cook-out without freshly squeezed lemonade, and this is the perfect mixture of sweet and tart. Finish it off with a peach blueberry cobbler with a cake like filling that's super easy to make. These two must-try recipes are sure to add a touch of sweetness to your holiday gathering, making it one to remember.
A refreshing glass of lemonade is the perfect cure for a hot summer day in the South. With 3 simple ingredients, you can whip up a delicious homemade lemonade recipe, it’s so much better than what you can get at the store.
The secret to getting that perfect lemonade flavor lies in the simple syrup. I make a simple homemade sugar syrup using the microwave, which makes things so much easier. It infuses the lemonade with a smooth sweetness that pairs beautifully with the sharpness of freshly squeezed lemons.
By using a simple syrup it allows you to have an even sweetness throughout without it being overly sweet.
I use about 6 to 7 lemons to get the perfect balance between sweet and tart. You’ll need 1 cup of lemon juice for 7 cups of lemonade. Although this recipe requires freshly squeezed lemons, it’s so worth it!
With juicy peaches, fresh blueberries, and a cakey batter, this Peach Blueberry Cobbler is the perfect end to a summer meal. With just 15 minutes of prep time, it’s a no-brainer. Top with a scoop of ice cream for a delicious dessert the whole family will love.
This Peach Blueberry Cobbler is one of those desserts that always steals the show. It’s not your typical cobbler —it has a cakey texture that rises up around the fruit, soaking in all those delicious juices without turning runny. It also has a splash of peach schnapps for a little extra.
The result is a thick, flavorful treat that balances sweetness with the natural tartness of the fruit, similar to a peach buckle but with more fruit. And that splash of peach schnapps? It really amps up the peach flavor, but it’s still great if you leave it out.
What I love about this cobbler is how the buttery batter creeps up around the edges, creating this rich, buttery crust that’s just as good as the fruit filling. The top of the cobbler gets a bit crunchy while the inside stays soft and moist, so every bite is a mix of warm fruit and crunchy batter.
