I don’t know about you all, but I am absolutely THRILLED that summer is almost here. European summers are truly the best – fun at the seaside, playing outside with the kids every day in the sunshine, hiking in the mountains, and sipping the most delicious lemonade at quaint little old town cafes. After falling in love with European lemonade over these last few years, I just knew I had to recreate it – and so this Healthy 3-Ingredient Lemonade recipe was born!
I can’t even tell you how happy I am to have a good, healthy lemonade in my life again – conventional lemonade in North America is packed with sugar and so it was a drink I gave up on for so many years. This Healthy 3-Ingredient Lemonade is made with lemons, water, and a touch of all natural honey for sweetness, making it good for your body and even great for kids! It’s ultra refreshing, easy to make, and it’s sure to become your new favourite summer drink too!

Why are you using straws nobody should be using straws of all the pollution these days.
Chrissie says
Hi Dave, great question! These are actually paper straws and they’re completely biodegradable. I agree, plastic straws should be a thing of the past. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment 🙂
Debbie says
Hi! Any other substitute sweetener aside from refined sugar and honey?
Chrissie says
Agave nectar also works well in this recipe! 🙂
Boyd Kobe says
Wow…this looks incredibly delicious!!! My family would love it!
Chrissie says
Thanks so much!
Istana says
I used agave nectar and found that it was kind of bland, and too sour, so I upped the agave to 1/2 cup. Even though agave is sweeter than other liquid sugars. But it may just be my personal taste, as I like very sweet lemonade.
Chrissie says
Thanks for the tips! We enjoy a more sour lemonade, but this recipe can be made to anyone’s tastes 🙂
Donna Greene says
I will definitely be trying this. I made your East 3-Ingredient Chia Seed Strawberry Jam a few days ago and it’s FABULOUS!!! I shared it with my friends that give me the honey.
Chrissie says
Thanks so much! Hope you like it!! 🙂
Kelley says
This looks wonderful and I plan on trying. Do you mix with cold water and , if so, any issues with getting the honey lemon mixture to mix with the water.
I just trimmed some fresh mint and lavendar from my garden and plant on adding them too! This recipe is simple and will be a perfect base, thanks for sharing!
The Busy Baker says
Thanks Kelley!I usually juice the lemons and add the juice to a blender along with the honey.I blend them until smooth and then add the water.I hope you enjoy!!
Heather says
Hi I juice my lemons and freeze the juice, could you give an estimate on how many cups of juice would be in 5 lemons? I don’t have my own supply of lemons so just juice them when friends give them to me. Thanks
Chrissie says
For future reference, one lemon usually has between 2 and 3 tablespoons of juice in it (depending on the size and ripeness). 🙂
