Honey Lemonade, a healthy and refreshing summer drink that is super quick and easy to make. Honey, lemons and water is all you need to make this super drink, there is absolutely no need for refined sugar.

A tall glass with lemonade, a slice of lemon on the edge of it, and half a lemon next to the glass.

Lemons are a great source of vitamin C, which is known to boost the immune system, amongst many other health benefits. And honey has been known for centuries for having an excellent medicinal value. Do not spoil the magical power of the lemonade by adding refined sugar, honey is the best alternative possible.

I like to drink this lemonade at room temperature, but, of course, it is also great ice-cold or hot. A healthy, hydrating, refreshing and delicious drink that can be enjoyed by the whole family.

Summer or winter time, this drink is all you need. No nasty chemicals, no sugar-loaded store-bough juices, just the nature's goodness in one glass.
