Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Fresh limes
- 4 cups Water
- 1 cup Granulated erythritol (or preferred sugar-free sweetener)
- 2 cups Ice cubes
- 8 leaves Mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
- 8 slices Lime slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Roll the limes on the counter under your palm to make them easier to juice. This helps to release more juice from the limes.
Cut each lime in half and juice them using a citrus juicer, collecting all the juice in a medium-sized bowl. You should get about 1 cup of lime juice.
In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lime juice and cold water.
Add the granulated erythritol to the pitcher and stir well until it is completely dissolved. Taste and adjust the sweetness if needed, adding more sweetener to suit your preference.
Add the ice cubes to the pitcher and stir to combine.
If desired, garnish with fresh mint leaves and lime slices before serving.
Serve immediately in glasses over ice and enjoy a refreshing, sugar-free limeade.
