A glass of lemonade is a refreshing beverage made from lemon juice, water, and typically sweetened with sugar or honey. Originating from the Mediterranean and South Asia, lemonade is a staple across cuisines worldwide, celebrated for its tangy and revitalizing flavor. Lemons are rich in vitamin C, an antioxidant that supports immune health and skin vitality, making lemonade a hydrating choice with nutritional benefits. However, the sugar content in many recipes can be high, adding extra calories and potentially contributing to increased blood sugar levels. For a healthier version, it can be sweetened with natural alternatives like stevia or less refined sweeteners. Lemonade can also be infused with herbs like mint or basil to enhance flavor and provide additional health benefits. Whether enjoyed on a hot summer day or as a refreshing complement to a meal, a glass of lemonade balances taste and nutrition with mindful preparation.
