Do I have to use Sweet’ N Low® to make Homemade Strawberry Lemonade?
No, you don’t have to use Sweet’ N Low® to make this Strawberry Lemonade recipe. Sweet’ N Low® is used in this recipe as a sugar substitute to reduce the calorie content of the drink. However, you can substitute it with another sweetener of your choice.
If you prefer natural sweeteners, you can use honey, agave nectar, or pure maple syrup.

Is there an adult version of Strawberry Lemonade?
Absolutely, there are many ways to turn this into a Spiked Strawberry Lemonade.
Vodka: This is a classic choice for a reason. It mixes well with the flavors of the lemonade without overpowering them. Start with 1 to 1.5 ounces of vodka per serving and adjust to taste.
Rum: White rum can add a tropical twist to your lemonade. Dark rum will provide a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Tequila: If you’re a fan of margaritas, you might enjoy your strawberry lemonade with a splash of tequila.
Champagne or Prosecco: For a bubbly version, reduce the amount of water in the recipe and replace it with an equal amount of your favorite sparkling wine.
Gin: The botanicals in gin can complement the fruit flavors in the lemonade quite well.

I love lemonade, but never liked having to take the time to make the simple syrup to make it from scratch. Plus knowing how much sugar goes into it! This looks like a great lower calorie take on an old favorite. And I love the twist of adding the blueberries and green apples to the strawberries.
Thanks for sharing with us at the #HomeMattersParty
So light and refreshing! This lemonade looks and sounds divine.
I love all of those different fruits in this! I don’t like lemonades that are only confined to lemons. They really need lots of different fruits to enhance its flavor. This looks so delicious and refreshing! Great recipe!
