Hi Tom,
You can omit the sugar from these lemonades, and just go with the natural sweetness from the fruits.
You guys are just the best sharing these wonderful healthy recipes to kick start us to a healthy, happy lifestyle.
Thanks a million!
I love watermelon juice, and you have just made my day with this lemonade. All of them sound refreshing, satisfying, and a little indulgent. Thanks so much!
Why do all the recipes have sugar or agave? is there no way to make a sweet drink without sugar?
Hello Tom,
Stevia or Mejool dates are an option as well. Remember to take the seeds out of the dates if they are not pitted.
