Limeade
This limeade is simple to make with no refined sugar or added preservatives. Just simple, refreshing goodness.
Ingredients
- 4 cups cold water
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup or 2 tablespoons superfine sugar dissolved in a little hot water, or more to taste
- 2 smallish lemons, preferably organic, scrubbed and halved
- 4 smallish limes, preferably organic, scrubbed and halved
- Ice
Instructions
- Pour the water into a pitcher, add the agave syrup or sugar mixture, and mix well.
- Squeeze the juice from the lemons and limes into the pitcher, reserving the spent citrus halves. Taste and, if desired, add agave syrup or sugar according to taste.
- If desired, slice 2 squeezed lemon halves and 4 squeezed lime halves in half again (by our count, that makes 12 wedges) and toss them in the pitcher.
- Serve over ice.
