Description
A refreshing, sugar free limeade recipe perfect for summer sipping—light, tangy, and naturally sweetened with monk fruit.
Ingredients
1 cup fresh lime juice (about 6–8 limes)
1/2 cup monk fruit sweetener (or sweetener of choice)
1/4 cup hot water (to dissolve sweetener)
4 cups cold water
Pinch of salt
Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Lime slices for garnish
Instructions
1. Juice the limes until you have 1 full cup.
2. Dissolve the monk fruit in 1/4 cup hot water to create syrup.
3. Combine syrup, lime juice, and 4 cups cold water in a pitcher.
4. Add a pinch of salt and stir well.
5. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
6. Serve over ice with mint and lime wedges.
Notes
Use allulose for a more neutral flavor if monk fruit tastes too strong.
Add sparkling water instead of still for a fizzy version.
Store in fridge up to 3 days—stir before serving.
