Gluten-Free, Vegan Classic Summer Lemonade

April 14, 2017

Everyone has a dream when they’re younger of becoming a lemonade tycoon, don’t they? Or was that just me?

It didn't happen for me then, but if I had made my lemonade using this recipe I would have been a heck-of-a lot closer.

It’s that ice cold, thirst-quenching, tangy cup of bliss that was made for hot summer days.

So invite your friends over for some fresh lemonade, the way it was meant to be made.

GLUTEN-FREE, VEGAN CLASSIC SUMMER LEMONADE

Ingredients

  • 8 cups of water
  • 3 lemons, squeezed and seed removed
  • 1 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup lemon juice
  • Lemon slices or zest for garnish

Directions

  1. In small pot over medium heat, bring 1 cup of water to boil.
  2. Add sugar to boiling water, continuously stirring until completely dissolved to create simple syrup.
  3. Cover pot and chill in fridge.
  4. In a large pitcher or dispenser, combine freshly squeezed lemon juice (should roughly yield 1/2 cup of juice with pulp) and store-bought lemon juice to the remaining water.
  5. Add in cooled simple syrup from fridge.
  6. Mix well and garnish with lemon slices or zest.

*You can chill the lemonade in the fridge, but I recommend using a pitcher or dispenser with a separate core to keep the ice from melting and watering-down the lemonade.

Hi, I'm Shalan! Studioist.co is my journal devoted to adventures, creativity, recipes, and my husband LeBraun and I's semi-nomadic lifestyle. I spend most of my days wondering how to combine my two loves, traveling and baking. The rest of my time I spend trying to create awesome illustrations and lettering projects. I want this to be a place of inspiration and encouragement as well as a fun place to spend your time. And yes, sometimes it gets messy, but I wouldn't have it any other way.


Here’s what shakin’, bacon!

Using this forced downtime to pull together a bunch more details about our destination wedding on Maui, our reception in Nashville + planning process, all with TONS MORE PHOTOS! 👰❤️🤵 A dream wedding looks different to everyone and we can’t wait to share how everything came together as a true reflection of us and our relationship. 
Yes planning is work + honestly can put a lot of stress on your relationship at times because it’s easy to get swept away in the glamour and perfection of the events, but remembering to keep the focus on each other - the real reason for the celebration - makes the process much more FUN! And it should be fun, you’re getting married! 🤗
