I don't have the recipe for this concoction, but I wanted to share this prickly pear lemonade I got at the Tohono Chul Park in Tucson. In case you're back in the Midwest, prickly pear is the fruit part of the cactus that can be harvested for a variety of dishes and desserts.The lemonade itself tasted normal, except much sweeter. There was also very little tartness or sour aftertaste. It was also an odd, glowing pink color as well. I don't know how much prickly pear syrup is actually in the beverage, but it was really good lemonade. I highly recommend it, no matter how authentic they are.

Not heard of this cordial. Must be a very American drink.
Have you heard of elderflower cordial? :)

That's such a pretty pink lemonade.I had no idea that any part of cactus was edible!
