About limeade
Limeade is a classic fresh citrus drink made from lime juice, sugar and water. This profile follows the plain homemade form without carbonation, concentrate, other fruit or alcohol.
Fresh lime gives the drink a sharper, greener acidity than lemonade, with a faint aromatic bitterness beneath the juice. Sugar rounds that edge, while cold water keeps the flavour clean and refreshing.
The finished limeade is pale green to nearly clear and lightly cloudy from fresh juice. It is smooth, brisk and distinctly sweet-tart, with a crisp lime finish.
