Used artificial sweetener and it turned out just fine! Skipped the food coloring and it was plenty colorful on its own. Double it to get a pitcher full to share!

Really yummy! I made it exactly as written, except we left the seeds in and it was great! It's like drinking a little pulp with it. This is a real winner!!! UPDATE: I just tried making this with half blackberries and half peaches (with skin on) and it's super delish too!

Good! We found the flavor to be really intense, but good. I put 4 trays of ice cubes in with the warm drink and put it in the fridge. I also skipped the food coloring. Thanks!

This was good but we found it to be a bit too sweet. Maybe we are a bit strange however; because we like our lemonade so tart that it causes one to pucker so much that their toenails curl. I will definitely give this another try but I will cut the sugar in half. Made for the 29th AUS/NZ Recipe Swap.

My family and I love fruity lemonades. This one was delicious. The lemon rind intensifies the lemon flavor and imparts a lovely fragrance. Stunning color, too. Thanks for sharing.
