In summer, you need to drink plenty of fluids, because you cannot allow dehydration of the body. Lemonades, which are sold at every step, are especially relevant. But besides the fact that you will quench your thirst and refresh yourself, you will get a huge dose of sugar and various chemicals. I recommend making lemonade yourself. And I want to offer you 5 recipes for this amazing drink at once!

Cherry
You will need:
- cherry syrup - 100 ml;
- mint - 3 branches;
- lemon - 1 pc.;
- oranges - 2 pcs.;
- water;
- ice.
How to cook:
Instead of regular water, you can take carbonated water. Rinse citrus fruits under running water. Cut half of one orange and 1⁄4 lemon into slices, and squeeze out all the juice from the rest. As for the cherry syrup, you can, of course, buy ready-made, but it is much better to use the one that is obtained during the preparation of the jam. Remember the mint in your hands, put it in a jug, add all the ingredients, ice, and then fill the entire remaining volume with water. Stir, let the drink stand a little. You can garnish it before serving with any fruit slices.

- water - 200 ml;
- sugar - 100 g;

Why did I indicate water twice? Because from 200 ml of water and sugar we will prepare a syrup. Place the ingredients in a saucepan and cook over low heat. You just don't need to cook it to caramel, you just have to get a light sugar syrup. Then you need to throw raspberries into it, and crush the berry a little. Keep the syrup on the fire for another 2-3 minutes, turn it off and let cool. Next, strain it through cheesecloth so that there are no seeds in the drink. Combine all the components, decorate as desired.
Peach
You will need:
- lime - 2 pcs.;
- peach - 3 pcs.;
- lemon - 2 pcs.;

- sugar - 5 tbsp. l.
How to cook:
Make peach puree by peeling and pitting the fruit. After that, squeeze the juice from the citrus fruits directly into a blender and add sugar. Turn all components into a homogeneous state, transfer to a jug, fill with water. You can take less water, then the lemonade will have a richer peach flavor.
