This recipe uses three simple ingredients to create a sweet and sour drink that you'll love!There's nothing quite like an ice-cold glass of lemonade.&nbsp;For years I've wrestled with keto lemonade, working to create a recipe that could meet my expectations for my favorite refreshing summer drink.I've come up with recipes that were "good enough," but nothing that hit the spot in quite the&nbsp;right way. That is, until today...this recipe simply&nbsp;hits different.Allulose. What I like about allulose, except for the fact that it tastes exactly like real sugar and has a glycemic index of zero, is that it is now very easily accessible and relatively inexpensive to buy.&nbsp;I've been cooking with allulose for years, but it's only been recently that it's something that can simply be found at your local Walmart.&nbsp;Simple is best, and the ingredients for this low carb lemonade are super simple. All you need is:You most certainly can enjoy fruits and remain in a ketogenic state. In my opinion, fruits and vegetables are objectively healthy, so eliminating them completely is not something I'm a fan of.&nbsp;Everyone's journey is different, but I did lose over 80 pounds in one year while still enjoying fruits very regularly.&nbsp;If you're looking for more ways to enjoy fruits on keto, you have to check out my keto lemon bars as well as my Low Carb Cheesecake Stuffed Strawberries. Delicious!This lemonade recipe makes 8 servings that are 8 ounces each. For a single serving, you're looking at:Calories: 30.05 caloriesTotal Carbs (including allulose): 46.25 gramsAllulose: 42 gramsFiber: 0.175 gramsNet Carbs: 4.075 gramsProtein: 0.225 gramsFat: 0.15 gramsAll of my nutritional calculations are my amateur estimates, but I can provide you with information on how I came to my findings.I know that most people would say that alternative sweeteners like allulose and erythritol have zero calories, but I went with the FDA recommendation of 0.4 calories per gram. I don't know if companies round down to zero in their calculations because the serving size is so low, but 0.4 calories can make a difference over a larger quantity.With pretty much all replacement sugars on a keto diet, net carbs (or effective carbs...or carbs that count) are calculated by taking the total carbs (including those in the sweeteners) and subtracting Fiber AND the replacement sugar.This really is the perfect keto friendly drink, regardless of your main dish. Some suggestions to pair it with, though, are:Continue to ContentIn a medium saucepan, mix together 1 cup of water with 1 and ¾ cups of granular allulose. Heat the mixture on medium heat, stirring occassionally, until a low boil starts, about 10 minutes. This will make the simple syrup base for the lemonade.Transfer syrup to serving pitcher and add 2 cups of fresh squeezed lemon juice. I used 5 medium sized lemons to reach this amount of juice.Add 6 cups of cold water to the serving pitcher and stir until very well combined. Serve on ice, and store in the refrigerator.If lemonade is too sweet, slowly add more water, ¼ cup at a time, tasting until your preference is reached.Click here to cancel reply.This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.
