What does everyone dream of in the scorching summer heat? Of course, about a glass of cold lemonade, and especially about one made from fresh ingredients with your own hands. Almost everyone knows the classic recipe for its preparation, but there are several secrets that will significantly improve the taste of this refreshing drink.
Instructions
Step 1
The main secret of the excellent taste of any culinary masterpiece lies in the high quality of the ingredients used in its manufacture. This secret also works when making lemonade. Do not use ready-made juice from the bag, rather buy fresh lemons and squeeze the juice out of them. Fresh strawberries add a subtle aroma, delicate flavor and brighter color to homemade lemonade.
Step 2
Traditional homemade lemonade recipes always require a few glasses of ice cold water. Plain water can be replaced with carbonated water, then the taste will become richer. In addition, you can get a refreshing cocktail for adults by using champagne instead of water.
Step 3
Mint gives a feeling of cooling freshness to all dishes and drinks to which it is added. Add a few mint leaves to your lemonade for a special freshness.
Step 4
Try replacing sugar with less harmful sweeteners. For example, stevia or agave nectar. They will sweeten the drink and provide health benefits.
Step 5
You can make unusual ice for lemonade. To do this, add, in addition to water, lemon juice and a natural sweetener to an ice cube tray and freeze. This combination of ingredients will look beautiful in a glass and will give an original taste.
