This lemonade is delicious and I often keep a jug of fresh lemonade prepared this way.in the fridge.
It is necessary for the lemons and the orange to stand in water with baking soda for at least 1 hour before use and then wash them well. It is ideal if you have a tree with homemade lemons.
- 2 lemons
- 1 orange
- 1 liter of water
- sugar or honey to taste
Preparation:
- First, put the fruit in a baking soda water (water to cover the fruit with 2 tbs baking soda).
- Before use, use lemons whole and you'll need to peel the orange since its zest is bitter.
- Put the fruit covered with water in a blender. Blend well then strain the thick juice through a larger holes strainer. There should be small pieces of fruit in the juice afterwards and just a little pulp left in the strainer.
- Add water to the strained juice up to 1 liter and add sugar, honey or other natural syrup to sweeten the juice.
- Add ice and serve.
- The taste of lemonade prepared in this way is very different than just squeezing the lemon juice. Try it! Consume quickly so you'll use the vitamins from the juice correctly.
