The first we do is to pare the zest from the 1 lemon 🍋 and 1 lime, being careful not to include much of the white pith for much bitterness.

Homemade lemon 🍋 and limeade that taste delicious and refreshing. One you can also make to store in the refrigerator for a day or two. I decided to not use ice 🧊 cubes since the water I added is definitely the right amount as ice cubes melting into water can change the consistency. So I will just take the drink to chill in the refrigerator.

Try making your homemade lemon and limeade and with steps from this recipe to see how refreshing it taste. Hope you love ❤️ it.

Thank you for coming with me through this recipe friends 😍. Sending love 💕.
