Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh lime juice
- 0.5 cup Honey

- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 1 lime Lime slices (optional, for garnish)

In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lime juice and the honey syrup.
Add the remaining 3 cups of cold water to the pitcher and stir well to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness or tartness by adding more honey or lime juice, if desired.
Fill serving glasses with ice cubes and pour the honey limeade over the ice.
Optionally, garnish each glass with a lime slice and a mint leaf for an extra touch of freshness and presentation.
