Homemade lemonade with ATTIKI island thyme honey

Directions  

Put the lemon juice, water, honey and lemon zest in a saucepan. Simmer on low heat for 5 minutes and remove from heat. Let the lemonade cool down completely and put in a clean glass bottle with an airtight cap. Serve the lemonade in tall glasses, which you half fill with the home-made lemonade you prepared and dilute with ice water or soda water. You can add ice and decorate with spearmint leaves.

Tips:

• Taste for sweetness, and increase the honey quantity accordingly.
• You can colour the lemonade with a few drops of cherry or pomegranate syrup.
• Replace with oranges and you can make home-made orange squash using the same recipe. Don’t forget to taste and adjust the honey quantity, to get the desired result!
