Fresh Limemade
A refreshing limemade that’s perfectly sweet, crisp, and irresistibly tangy and tart!
On a recent trip to Puerto Rico, I learned that limemade (natively known as limonada) originated there. It was the most refreshing, perfectly sweet & tangy drink I’d ever had, and I drank it like water on our vacation—ordering it as an introduction to every meal. As soon as we arrived back home, I ran to my kitchen to recreate it. It’s crisp, refreshing, sweet, and so irresistible. Now, I can’t live without a pitcher of fresh limemade in my fridge.
