Summertime. The time when kids in our neighborhood turn into suave entrepreneurs. In other words, the lemonade business is back and booming for June, July, and August.
Can we offer a tip that will put your little professional one step ahead of the other lemonade businesses in the area?
Carbonated lemonade.
We’ve been testing this new and easy carbonation system at The Good Cooking Store, so we know it works. And now we want to give it to all you lemonade-lovers! Actually, we want to give you what we’re calling the Cool Drinks Set! Take a look:
The Twist and Sparkle carbonates your favorite beverage in less then 2 minutes (without batteries or electricity)! It comes with 1 reusable bottle, 1 sparkling wand, 3 recyclable soda chargers, and a recipe book featuring 26 dazzling beverage ideas!

But don’t worry, if you don’t think 3 soda chargers are enough, we’re also giving you an additional 5 boxes of soda chargers with 10 chargers in each box. That’s…um, give us a sec…50 additional soda chargers!

We’re throwing in 2 sets of ice kabobs too. Fill tray with water, freeze overnight, and suddenly your lemonade got a little fancier. (Now it might be worth a little more per cup.)

And because we’re getting thirsty just talking about this, we’re throwing in a Takeya glass water bottle just for you. This bottle holds 16 fl. oz., has a leakproof twist cap, a trendy silicone jacket (think soft grip and glass protector), and is dishwasher safe!

(The manufacturers have no idea we’re giving these products to you–or the lemonade business tip.)
