Want to spark up your party with a healthy, delicious recipe? Here's one I've been enjoying a bunch this summer, and my kids just love. Noone will even notice it does not contain sugar. Instead it contains Stevia, a zero-calorie natural sweetener from the Stevia plant, which I also have growing in my garden. Be sure though when buying Stevia that you are just buying Stevia. Some Stevias on the market now also contains other sweeteners so it's not just Stevia! Yikes! I love the liquid form made with a glycerine base, it makes it easy to disperse into liquid beverages such as this. I hope you enjoy!
Lemonade with Stevia
6 Lemons
6 Cups Water
2 Tablespoons Stevia (about 4-5 drops per cup of water)
I usually use a ratio of 1 lemon to 1 cup water, so if you want to make just a single serving for yourself in a pinch, you can use 1 cup water with 1 lemon, juiced. Then, add about 4-5 drops of Stevia per cup of water, and garnish with ice, fresh mint or a slice of lemon. I hope you are enjoy all the sights and sounds of summer! Have you ever experimented with Stevia before?
