How do you make this homemade lemonade recipe?  It's easy, delicious and so refreshing.  Let's roll up our sleeves and squeeze some lemons!

Lemonade-24 Carrot KitchenHow To Make Lemonade With Lemon Juice:

We have been having some great Indian summer days here in the Northeast.  As a result, I have been craving my favorite lemonade.  I basically stopped drinking lemonade for quite a while because of all the sugar necessary to make it tasty.  My version is sugar-free and I love the way it tastes!

This summer I decided to experiment and make a very simple lemonade recipe.  I was looking for something that I could make any time and was quick and easy.  As we know, lemons are very tart, so a sweetener is needed.  The sweetener that I found really worked well was Stevia.

So, even though the leaves are dropping left and right and New England is right about the peak for foliage, I am finding this lemonade perfectly refreshing sitting outside in the afternoon sunshine.

I am glad lemonade is back in my life!  It is just one of those things I missed having on a lazy, hot afternoon.
