We offer to prepare delicious and healthy homemade lemonade from natural products

It is impossible to imagine summer without refreshing cool drinks and juicy fruits. But you can only quench your thirst with certain drinks. A large selection of sugary soda in stores will not be beneficial due to its chemical composition. Only natural cocktails and soft drinks with ice and juicy fruit pulp refresh in the heat and reduce the strain on the heart. Thanks to vitamin C in the composition and sufficient moisture in the body, it is easier to adapt to the sweltering heat and cheer up in anticipation of the evening coolness.

Features and composition of the product

Flavored tropical lime is the leading component in summer cocktails. It imparts a bright acidity and piquant bitterness to fruit smoothies and iced teas. Lime is also useful in vegetable cocktails with spinach and dill or cucumber. Its green color stimulates appetite and cheers up.

Lime, like lemon, belongs to the citrus genus. He became famous in the Mediterranean as early as five hundred years BC. And they began to cultivate the fruit already in the 19th century. Lime fruit is similar to lemon in shape and sour taste, but smaller in diameter, greenish in color and with a slight bitterness in the aftertaste. The juicy flesh of limes is greenish in color and pronounced acidity, and some varieties are distinguished by red flesh (Australian lime) and sweet aftertaste (limetta).

Due to its rich content of vitamin C, lime is indispensable for therapeutic diets. Ascorbic acid is capable of miracles: removing cholesterol and dissolved fats, strengthening the immune system, and helping to recover from influenza viruses. In addition, lime juice stimulates the natural production of collagen, restoring skin turgor, slowing down the aging process and helping the body absorb iron from food.

Making lemonade at home from lime and lemon is the best solution for those who care about their health and protect the stomachs of dear people. You can be sure of such a drink and give it even to babies, provided that they are not allergic to citrus fruits. Add a sprig of fresh mint to a glass of homemade lemonade, a couple of ice cubes, and sip your homemade lemonade in slow sips.
