Tips:

  • For a sweeter lemonade, add more lime juice and sugar. For a tarter lemonade, add less lime juice and sugar.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor will be less bright.
  • Chill the lemonade for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help to make it extra refreshing.
  • Garnish the lemonade with lime slices, mint leaves, or a lime wedge for a festive touch.
  • If you like, you can add other fruits to the lemonade, such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries. This will give the lemonade a unique flavor and a pop of color.

So next time you're looking for a cool and refreshing drink, give key lime lemonade a try. You won't be disappointed.
