Tips:
- Use the freshest lemons possible. Freshly squeezed lemon juice has a brighter flavor than store-bought juice.
- Roll the lemons before juicing them. This will help release more juice.
- Use a citrus juicer. A citrus juicer will make it easier to extract the juice from the lemons.
- Strain the lemonade before serving. This will remove any pulp or seeds.
- Sweeten the lemonade to your taste. Truvia Natural Sweetener is a good option for those who want to avoid refined sugar.
- Serve the lemonade chilled. This is especially refreshing on a hot summer day.
Conclusion:
Fresh squeezed lemonade is a delicious and refreshing drink that is perfect for any occasion. It is also a good source of vitamin C. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make your own fresh squeezed lemonade at home.
