🍹 Taste and character
-

-
Character: a sweet, delicately fruity fizzy drink — ideal as a summer refreshment, with lunch or throughout the day.
-
Caffeine-free: also suitable for those who want a fizzy drink without stimulants.
📌 Serving and storage

Serve well chilled — this brings out the bubbles and aroma better.
-

💡 Tips
-
For extra refreshment, add ice and perhaps a slice of lemon or some fresh raspberries.
-
You can also mix it with still water for a milder version with fewer bubbles.
-
If you’re watching your sugar intake, bear in mind that the lemonade still contains added sugar – even though it’s partly replaced by sweetener, it’s still a sweet drink.
