Agave Lemonade
Homemade lemonade couldn't be easier. This agave lemonade comes together in a snap for a refreshing summertime drink!
Equipment
- Handheld juicer or citrus reamer (optional)
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice about 6 large lemons
- 2 ½ cups Water
- ½ cup Golden light agave*
Instructions
- Press down on the lemons firmly as you roll them on the counter. Cut the lemons in half and squeeze into a measuring cup. Strain to remove the seeds and/or pulp.
- In a medium sized pitcher add the lemon juice, water, and agave. Stir well then top with lots of ice.
- Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for later. Just be sure to add the ice when you are ready to use so it doesn't melt in the lemonade.
- For a sweeter lemonade gradually add more agave tasting as you go. For a more diluted lemonade gradually add more water tasting as you go.
Notes
* Be sure to use light agave nectar. Amber agave has a very intense flavor!
