Lemonade Plus

"I found this recipe on another site over 5 years ago and have been making it every summer. The added fruits really make a difference in taste. It does, however, get a bit bitter near the end of the pitcher--if you don't finish it all quickly, you may want to remove the sliced fruit. ZWT 3: U.S. (oranges and grapefruits) and Australia (oranges, grapefruits, limes, lemons)"

  1. Delicious blend of flavors, tangy and sweet. Made for Name that Ingredient.
     
  2. Loved the flavour of this drink! I don't like grapefruit so we used 2 oranges instead. I let it chill for a few hours and the flavour was absolutely lovely, and so much easier than making lemonade from scratch. I'll use this recipe often!
     
  3. This was great. I made it in a 1/2 gallon container and just used one can of lemonade then when it ran out I added the second can. Everyone loved it and I liked that you could taste the fresh flavors of the fruit.
     
  4. Don't get me wrong ~ I love plain ol' lemonade, but when it's got a 'plus' in it, my eyes light up, so I made a double batch for a small group I hosted! I found that some of the guests really enjoyed eating the pieces of fruit, while others left them alone ~ But, they were unanimous about the drink ~ ABSOLUTELY GREAT LEMONADE!

  5. Since I only had a 2L (1/2 a gallon) pitcher I only used 1 can of lemonade. However I did still use the whole fruits so it was a little more citrusy than I think it was supposed to be. I did buy 2 cans of lemonade though, so I think I'll try it again with only half the fruit.
