Begin by thoroughly washing the lemons under running water to remove any pesticides or wax coating.
Cut each lemon in half, then use a citrus juicer to extract the juice. You should end up with about 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice.
Strain the lemon juice through a fine-mesh sieve into a large pitcher to remove seeds and pulp.
Add the water to the pitcher, stirring well to combine with the lemon juice.
Gradually add 1 cup of erythritol or monk fruit sweetener to the pitcher while stirring. Adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more sweetener if needed.
Add ice cubes to the pitcher, stirring until the lemonade is chilled and ready to serve.
Optionally, toss in fresh mint leaves for a refreshing hint of mint flavor.
Pour the keto lemonade into glasses filled with more ice cubes, and garnish each glass with a slice of lemon.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delightful, keto-friendly lemonade!
