What is "lemonade"?

Lemonade is a refreshing and citrusy beverage that is made from freshly squeezed lemon juice, water, and sugar. The lemon juice and sugar are mixed with water and stirred until the sugar dissolves, resulting in a sweet and tangy drink that is often served over ice. Variations of lemonade can include the addition of other fruits, such as strawberries or raspberries, or the use of honey instead of sugar for a more natural sweetener. Lemonade is a popular drink during the summer months, and is often sold at fairs, carnivals, and other outdoor events.
