- Tonic waterTo taste
- Lemon thyme1 sprig
- Honey1 tsp
- IceA handful
- Lemon slicesA few (garnish)

Cut the lemon in half and squeeze it with a juicer. Half a lemon yields more than 30ml (2 tbsp), which is plenty for one glass.
- 2
Pour 30ml of lemon juice into a glass and stir in 1 tsp of honey. Using honey instead of syrup or sugar makes it a healthier drink.
- 3
Add a sprig of lemon thyme for garnish, along with ice and lemon slices.
- 4
Fill the glass to the top, arranging everything neatly from the bottom up.
- 5
Top it off with sparkling water or tonic water, and your cool, tangy lemonade is ready.
Tips
Before juicing, roll the lemon on the counter while pressing gently with your palm — it releases more juice.
