Ingredients
    1/2 cup butter, softened
    1/2 cup white sugar
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon baking soda
    1/3 cup frozen pink lemonade concentrate, thawed
    1 egg
    1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
    Pink Lemonade Icing:
    2 cups confectioners' sugar
    2 tablespoons frozen pink lemonade concentrate, thawed
    2 tablespoons butter, softened
    2 drops red food coloring (optional)
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    Beat 1/2 cup butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add white sugar, baking powder, and baking soda; beat until blended. Beat in 1/3 cup pink lemonade concentrate and egg. Beat in flour until dough comes together.
    Drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet by rounded spoonfuls, spacing them 2 inches apart.
    Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool, about 10 minutes.
    Combine confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons pink lemonade concentrate, and 2 tablespoons butter in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until icing is smooth. Beat in red food coloring.
    Spread icing over cooled cookies.
