Lemonade has been around for fifteen-hundred years or more and at least one precursor dates back to the middle ages on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. Something closer to the modern version of Fresh Lemonade we know today appeared in Paris in 1630 sweetened with honey. It became so popular and widespread that there was even a union of lemonade vendors.
Read MoreThe birth of carbonation in Britain in the 1780’s ushered in the first commercially available lemonade in the 1830s produced by Schweppes. With the influx of Europeans to the US, so rose the popularity of lemonade, fuelled by the strong temperance movement that rejected the drinking of alcohol.
Lemonades are mostly served sparkling in Europe and still in the US. Whichever you prefer, the recipe remains the same, just pick your preferred water to lengthen the recipe with.
