I love lemonade, but I feel like most store-bought or restaurant-served options are too sweet, too sour, and/or make me more thirsty after drinking them than I was before.
This is a simple lemonade that leans on natural sweeteners - honey and stevia powder - to make a refreshing and light drink perfect for summer mornings, afternoons, and evenings.
Honey Mint Lemonade
Refreshing, light, and pucker-free lemonade that will quench the greatest of thirsts.
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1/2 gallon water
- 1/2 cup honey
- 2/3 cup lemon juice fresh squeezed - this is important!
- 1 handful mint leaves
- 1-1 1/2 tsp stevia powder
- 1-2 cups ice
Instructions
- Make the syrup by combing the honey and lemon juice in a cup and whisk until combined. Add the mint to the syrup and gently muddle with a muddler or the back end of a wooden spoon (muddling is when you crush and bruise the leaves to bring out the oils and flavor more).
- Pour the syrup with the mint and the stevia into the water. Mix until combined, add the ice, stir again and enjoy!

Looks delicious!! Can I sub regular sugar? Or something other than Stevia or artificial sweeteners? I just hate the taste of Stevia so I don’t keep it around. Thanks!
You bet! The honey is what really makes it special so I would encourage using that, but you can substitute the stevia out with sugar (though you'll need more sugar).
