Step 1

To make the simple syrup, boil 1 cup of water on the stove before adding in 1 cup of granulated sweetener to dissolve. Remove from heat and allow it to cool while you juice your lemons.

Step 2

Wash and slice your lemons in half before juicing the halves into a liquid measuring cup. You want 1 cup of lemon juice.

Step 3

Add the lemon juice to a large pitcher, before adding 3 cups of fresh water to the juice. Add an extra 4th cup if you want the lemonade more diluted.

Step 4

Now add the sugar-free simple syrup you made. Start with 3/4 cup and add more if needed after taste testing.

Step 5

Serve chilled with ice and extra lemon slices if desired.
