It's Thursday... and I'm thirsty!!
There is nothing more refreshing than a cool glass of lemonade on a hot summer day. The problem is, most lemonade is anything but FRESH. Most pre-made lemonades are filled with preservatives, chemicals and flavor enhancers. Making your own fresh lemonade is simple! Today I am going to share a few of my favorite variations!
Replenish and Hydrate with these DELICIOUS summer recipes!

6-8 lemons which should make 1 Cup of fresh juiced lemon juice

Pour everything into a heat-proof pitcher. Stir until honey is dissolved. Place the pitcher in the fridge and let it cool before serving.

6-8 lemons which should make 1 Cup of fresh juiced lemon juice
1 1/2 Cups of water
1/2 teaspoon of Stevia
