Summertime for me means morning workouts and long days by the pool soaking up the sun. Since I gave up diet coke a few months ago and we hit the 90’s here in Las Vegas I’ve been slurping up this zero calorie limeade almost daily.
Yes, I finally gave up diet coke! My whole family loves diet coke, including me. I always knew that when I got pregnant again I would give it up. It was extremely hard, but after a few rough weeks I got my energy back and the headaches were gone. I must admit, I feel great- minus the fact that I’m pregnant. *Wink No, pregnancy isn’t my thing. Honestly, when a woman tells me she loves being pregnant I want to punch her in the face.
Back to the zero calorie limeade. My sister introduced me to this lovely drink a few years ago and I absolutely love it. Not only is this limeade refreshing but limes are very beneficial for you. Great for your skin, eyes, digestion, and helps aid in weightless among many other things. Now I don’t think drinking limeade alone will shed the pounds, but it certainly would be a nice addition to a healthy diet. So here is what you need:

I’m impressed! I’m hoping this summer I can kick it, but man do I love my diet Pepsi!
You can do it! It took me a couple attempts, but I finally did it. I still watch my husband sip on one sometimes and I want to steal it…
“Honestly, when a woman tells me she loves being pregnant I want to punch her in the face.” Sorry, this had me cracking up! My sister said the exact same thing when she was expecting. This Limeade just sounds refreshing. Can’t wait to try it at our next barbeque!

Haha! Thanks for stopping by, Rocio! I hope you like it!
Always looking for low calorie drinks and your limeade sounds delicious. I have never used stevia but I plan to try it when I make the limeade.
Can this be frozen? I plan on using this as part of popsicle recipe that callas for red grapes and limeade
what is the lifespan of this limeade?
