if you are trying to cut back on sugar but love fun beverages you have to make this drink! lemonade is super easy to make and I love adding frozen fruit for such a refreshing twist on a classic drink — this pineapple dragonfruit lemonade is so bomb and pretty!!!

here’s my recipe:

✨ 1 cup frozen pink dragon fruit

✨ 1/2 cup of fresh cut pineapple (pineapple juice would work here too)

✨ 2 tbsp of sugar (you can use any kind of sugar or replacement instead — honey or agave would be nice)

✨ add about 1 cup of hot/warm water to dissolve the sugar and defrost the flavor of the frozen fruit (let rest for 30 minutes)

✨ add in 1 cup of fresh squeezed lemon juice

✨top off the the rest with about 4-6 cups of cold water

✨ either add liquid stevia before (I use 2 dropper fulls) or add your own drops in as needed

📋 recipe notes: feel free to sub any of the fruits, strawberry, blueberry, mango, kiwi all are great alternatives! Also, the amount of water you use to top off the lemon juice and fruit mixture depends on how tart you like your lemonade so taste as you go!

📋 bonus: add coconut milk or sweetened condensed coconut milk to this for a refreshing creamy twist

I have pcos and tons of sugar is one of the triggers so I make a variation of lemonade and tea weekly instead of buying juice from the store which has a bunch of added sugar🙂
