5 stars all the way. I like that the measurements are in "fruit" and not in cups, so I know exactly what I need. Thank you for sharing a recipe for a tasty, refreshing beverage.

NOW THAT IS LEMONADE! My usual process includes 6 lemons & an orange, plus the sugar, of course, but I like my 'ade tart, & the limes really help out there! And, I like the large batches, 'cause my serving size is considerable, especially during the hot summer months! Thanks much for sharing!

This is a wonderful lemonade for a warm day!!! I used the juice from half a lemon, lime and orange and about 1/2 tablespoon sugar and then filled with ice and water for one serving. I love the combination of the juices!! Will definitely be making this often. Thanks Calee for a great recipe.

Delicious flavor - a great twist on one of my favorite beverages! Thanks for giving me an easy alternative to a mix or store bought version Calee!! **Made for January Beverage Tag 2008**

This was WONDERFUL! I'd never had this combo and it is now a keeper! I scaled down the recipe and used 1 of each fruit, 2 1/4 cups water and 1/3 cup of sugar. I would love to try this with Splenda and soda water as well. Thank you so much for this recipe!
