Lemonade

Be the first to review!
It won’t take you long to put a glass of this together. All you need is a lemon, a bit of maple syrup, water and ice to make a proper home-brewed Lemonade. Put it all together and you get a frosty, well-balanced drink that’s as much about the clean taste of the lemon as it is the mellow sweetness from the syrup. It is that sort of no-fuss affair that is just right when you want something cool and put-together in a few minutes’ time on a sweltering afternoon.
