I added a tablespoon of honey to the lemonade to make it a little sweeter.

I used sparkling water instead of regular water, and it gave the lemonade a nice fizzy kick.

I'm not a big fan of mint, so I omitted it from the recipe. The lemonade was still delicious.

This is the most refreshing lemonade I've ever had! The orange and lemon flavors are perfectly balanced, and the hint of mint is just enough to make it extra special.
