8. Lemonade
Refreshingly cold and sweet, lemonade is the perfect thirst quencher on a hot summer day at the fair. Believed to promote good health, an early version of this drink was consumed in Asia and the Middle East at least as early as the sixth century. Traditionally a blend of cold water, lemon juice, and sugar, lemonade is routinely served over ice. Modern-day lemonade comes in many varieties, but is often offered “fresh-squeezed” at fairs.
