Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup of HerbaZest Stevia Leaves (packed)
  • 5 ounces of lemon juice (or more)
  • 4 cups of water (2 cups hot + 2 cups cold)

Directions

There's nothing better than drinking a cold lemonade on a hot, summer day, especially when it's naturally sweetened with stevia and doesn't contain all the sugar typically added to lemonade. This delicious stevia lemonade is refreshing, slightly herbal, and lightly sweet. Packed with vitamin C from lemons, it's a wholesome beverage that you can enjoy year round.

  1. Place stevia leaves in a bowl and pour 2 cups of hot water over them. Give it a quick mix and let it steep for 5-10 minutes. (10 minutes)
  2. Strain the liquid, discard the leaves, and place the stevia infusion in the fridge until cool. (30 minutes)
  3. Pour the stevia infusion into a pitcher. Add the lemon juice and the remaining 2 cups of cold water. Give it a mix. Chill in the refrigerator until serving. (2 minutes)
