Sparkling Vodka Lemonade: Recipe

Spring comes early to Atlanta. Sadly, we're not there yet, but Jeff said he saw some Canadian geese flying back north today. And the other day when we were on the traffic island in front of our building harvesting ginkgo nuts (Mary, don't ask) he said he saw a dandelion.

What better way to get ready to welcome the spring than to drink one of these sparkling lemonades?

For a non-alcoholic kid's version, just skip the vodka.

I'm a purist when it comes to vodka, but if you want to try some of the flavored types then the citrus, cherry, or other fruit flavored vodka would probably go well in this recipe.
