Express lemonade (traditional method & Thermomix)
Description
There's nothing like chilled homemade lemonade to quench your thirst on a hot day. This super-fast recipe has become a classic in my house: I make it for family, friends and sometimes even for the workers at home. It's always greeted with a big smile. You can serve it as is or sweetened with a little sparkling or still water, as you prefer.
