I'm not a fan of mint, so I omitted it from the recipe. The lemonade was still delicious.

I didn't have any Meyer lemons, so I used regular lemons. The lemonade still turned out good, but I think it would have been even better with Meyer lemons.

This lemonade is a bit tart for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think I would add a little more sugar next time.

This lemonade is a great way to use up Meyer lemons. I had a bunch of them that were about to go bad, so I made this lemonade and it turned out great.
