I love a sweet and tart lemonade. Pink Lemonade is the ultimate summer drink! The raspberries add a wonderful sweetness that really allows the lemon pop! And of course, it gives this lemonade its beautiful pink color.
This drink to me, is perfect without the added sweetener. If you chose to opt out of the honey, this makes a great Whole30 beverage. You can also gauge the amount of honey you add in based on how sweet you like your drink. Like I said, for me I love this without the added sweetness. However, if you enjoy adding the sweetness to your drink, the honey is a no-guilt option! This is also perfect for those who are trying to wing themselves off soda. You can replace your daily drink with this satisfying lemonade to fully get yourself to switch.
Not only is this lemonade cool and refreshing, it is a natural detox for the body. Lemons help detoxify our digestive system as well as our liver. The lemon and raspberry combination have a rich source of Vitamin C and antioxidants that nourish the immune system as well. So not only is this a refreshing treat, it is incredibly good for your body!
This is a fun drink for any occasion. Lemonade is great for the backyard dinner, or family and friend BBQ. You can make this ahead or store any remains in the fridge for up to 3 days. Pink lemonade is the perfect refreshing drink this time of year.
My money saving tip is simply to make your own drinks! It is so convenient to go to the store and find a compliant option. But more often than less, it is more cost effective to make your own compliant paleo foods + drinks. Not only will you save money but you can control the ingredients, sweetness and flavor.
