Preparation time: 10 minutes
Total time: 10 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:
- 1 liter of still water
- 2 lemons
- 2 limes
- Fresh mint leaves (or, in their absence, dried mint is a good alternative)
- 8 sticks of Green Sugar
- Ice cubes (optional, for a refreshing effect)
- Lemon and lime slices for garnish

Step by step for perfect lemonade:

1. Preparing the citrus: Start by washing the lemons and limes well. I recommend using fresh citrus, as they have a more intense and aromatic flavor. Cut the two lemons and the two limes in half and squeeze the juice into a large bowl, being careful to remove the seeds.

2. Sweetening the juice: In the bowl with the freshly squeezed juice, add the 8 sticks of Green Sugar. Mix well until the sweetener is completely dissolved. It is important to stir enough to ensure that no undissolved crystals remain.

3. Adding the water: Once you have a sweet and aromatic juice, gradually add the 1 liter of still water. You can adjust the amount of water according to your preferences – if you like your lemonade more concentrated, you can use a little less water.

4. Enriching with mint: Now it's time to add the mint leaves. If you have fresh mint, chop the leaves into small pieces to release the aroma, and if you're using dried mint, add it directly to the mixture.

5. Serving: If you wish, you can add ice cubes to cool the lemonade. Pour the lemonade into glasses and garnish with lemon and lime slices. A beautiful presentation always makes the drink even more enjoyable!

Tips and useful advice:
- If you want to add a note of originality, you can infuse the lemonade with other ingredients, such as slices of ginger or a few pink peppercorns.
- Instead of still water, you can use sparkling water for a fizzier lemonade.
- If you're concerned about calorie intake, Green Sugar is an excellent choice, having zero calories and zero glycemic index, making it ideal for those on a diet or with diabetes.

Nutritional benefits:
This lemonade is not only refreshing but also offers multiple health benefits. Lemons are rich in vitamin C, which helps strengthen the immune system, while mint contributes to healthy digestion. Using Green Sugar instead of sugar allows you to enjoy sweetness without worrying about calories.

Frequently asked questions:
1. Can I use other types of sweeteners?
- Yes, you can experiment with other natural sweeteners, but make sure they do not affect the final taste.

2. How can I keep the lemonade fresh?
- It is recommended to consume it the same day, but you can store the lemonade in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

3. Can I add other fruits to the lemonade?
- Absolutely! Fruits like strawberries or peaches pair perfectly with lemonade.

Serving ideas:
Serving lemonade in glasses with ice, alongside a plate of cookies or an apple pie, can turn a simple drink into a pleasant social experience. You can also pair lemonade with a cocktail made with white rum or gin for a more sophisticated party.

In conclusion, this sugar-free lemonade recipe, sweetened with Green Sugar, is not only delicious but also an excellent way to enjoy the flavors of autumn. So, don't hesitate to remind yourself of warm summer days even in the cold season! Savor every sip and share the joy with your loved ones! Enjoy!
