A Flavored Lemonade Bar or Lemonade Stand is the perfect for Memorial Day or the 4th of July, and would be a great addition to your next party!
Creating a DIY Flavored Lemonade Stand
We love lemonade in our house. Even more than that we love flavored lemonades. The Freckled Lemonade from Red Robin happens to be our favorite! My kids love picking the fruit out of the bottom and slurping the delicious lemonade until it’s completely empty.
Knowing how much they love that flavored lemonade, I thought how fun it would be to create a Flavored Lemonade Bar, where guests can play mixologist and create their own special lemonade drinks! The free printable set I’ve created is the perfect touch.
This lemonade stand was so easy to pull together. I had this beautiful wood potting bench; I never intended it to be a potting bench though – it’s going to be the perfect drink station for all of our future parties!
What You Need for a DIY Lemonade Stand
For the lemonade bar, here are the supplies you will need to get started:
- Lemonade (try my homemade lemonade recipe)
- Lemon Squeezer (if you’re making your own lemonade)
- Cut up fruit (berries, peaches and watermelon are our favorites)
- Torani Syrup
- Glass Pitcher
- Mason Jars or other type of glasses
- Paper Straws
- Free Printable Set (below)
- and of course, lemons!
Lemonade Stand Decor
For an added touch of lemon, I added lemon slices to a vase filled with baby’s breath. My kids were confused and thought I was making flowery lemonade. I added lemon slices to the pitcher of lemonade too.
The perfect lemonade stand of course needs to have a whole bunch of lemons as part of the decor. I picked a bunch of lemons from my backyard tree – and yes that lemon on top really is the size of a grapefruit!
Aren’t these fruits just gorgeous? We used sliced strawberries, peaches, and blueberries for our lemonade bar. But almost any fruit would be great. Top it off with a sprig of mint for added flavor.
Helpful Tips
- Torani Syrups are a must for making the perfect flavored lemonade. Try mixing them together for something even more special – the possibilities are endless!
- For the best color on the printables, send the files to your local office supply store, like Staples. Or use cardstock and a high quality printer.

Love the idea of a lemonade bar – I downloaded the printables and can’t wait for the summer.
Question – how do you attach the tags to the straws? Yours look so nice and neat.
thanks!
I just cut the strips, fold then around the straw and use a glue stick. If you do them tight enough they won’t slide, but it’s ok if they slide a little. Enjoy!
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful talent! I can’t wait to use these printables at an upcoming church party.
So adorable! Is there any way to edit the lemonade bar framed sign??
We are doing purees instead of syrup. Thanks!!
Sorry, my printables are shared as is.
I wasn’t able to download the lemonade bar printables. Any suggestions. Thanks for generously sharing your talents!
I saw your adorable website and these cute printables from Pinterest, but was unable to get them to load. Are they still available? Thanks for your willingness to share your talents!
Is there any other way to download these adorable printables? I’m having a hard time with the Google Drive. Thanks!!
Thank you for the beautiful inspiration! I’ve been searching all over for ideas to make lemonade more interesting for a very special Father’s Day get-together this weekend! (I also love Freckled Lemonade from Red Robin! LOL) We recently found out my Dad has Stage IV lung cancer, I want to “go big” for this Father’s Day celebration and he loves lemonade! I just know he will love this 🙂
I’m so sorry to hear about your dad! What a sweet way to honor him on Father’s Day! I’d love to see photos if you have them.
thank you!!! so much for the printable .. Love the design
This is absolutely beautiful Kristin… The banner, the potting bench, sing, everything! I’m going to use it for a party this summer 🙂 thanks so much for the printables. By the way, I just read your children’s adoption stories… So heart touching! They are blessed, as I’m sure you are as well!
Thanks so much Kendra!
