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!

      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 🙂

    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.

    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.
