Instructies

Dissolve Honey

Heat 1 cup of water in a small saucepan on the stove or in the microwave until warm (not boiling). Add honey and stir to dissolve completely.

Pulse To Combine

. Add dissolved honey mixture to a blender along with lemon juice and berries. Pulse to break up the berries (no need to fully puree).

Mix In Water

Stir in remaining cold water and stir to combine. Transfer lemonade mixture to a large pitcher with 2-3 cups of ice or pour into glasses full of ice. (If not serving right away, add the ice right before serving.)

Garnish

. If desired, garnish with more fresh berries, fresh mint, lemon wedge, lemon slices, etc.

Serve & Store

Enjoy right away over ice. Leftover lemonade will keep fresh in the refrigerator 3-4 days. (You can freeze it in freezer-safe jars or ice cube trays, if desired!)
