Some people run lemonade stands. We run a lemonade boat.
Every morning we load a cooler full of ice-cold lemonade into our little aluminum jon boat and set off along the white-sand beaches of St. Petersburg. If you catch us drifting by, throw us a wave — then wade on out and meet us at the boat. Because wading out beats walking all the way back to the parking lot.

Today's pour
We blend a concentrate from fresh lemons and real fruit, then add cold water — never artificial flavors or sweeteners.
Always on boardPure, tart, ice-cold. A classic.
SeasonalReal Plant City strawberries add a delicious fruity punch.
Crew favoriteGarden mint and a kiss of basil. Does this count as drinking your greens?
No app. No line. Just a boat, a cooler full of lemonade, and a really enthusiastic wave.
Look for the yellow flag and the little aluminum jon boat just past the surf line.
Give us a big wave, then walk right out to us — we hold just past the surf line. When we're parked at the Shell Key sandbar, you can stroll right up on the sand.
Pay with cash or Venmo, grab your bottles right at the boat, and we shove off to the next group.
Why "Native"?
I'm a St. Pete native — born and raised, one of the few of us left around here. If you know, you know.
And lately, life has been handing me a whole lot of lemons. So I'm doing the only thing that makes sense: making lemonade — and selling it from a little boat off the beaches I grew up on.
Where to find us
We don't do fixed schedules — the wind, the waves, and the weather call the shots. Some days we're drifting past Pass-a-Grille, some days we're parked at the Shell Key sandbar. And when we stay ashore, look for our lemonade cart — a little boat on wheels — popping up around St. Pete. Check Instagram to see where we're floating (or rolling) today.
@nativelemonade →Beach wedding, bachelorette, birthday on the sand? Reserve a full cooler (24 drinks) and we'll keep it ice-cold on the boat — flag us down when you're ready and wade out to pick it up.
