Cherriade or cherry lemonade
Ingredients for a 1 liter bottle:
250 g cherries
3 cold lemons
4 tablespoons of sugar or honey
Sparkling water (chilled)
Mint leaves
Ice cubes
Preparation:
Press the juice of the lemons and pour into the blender bowl. Pit the cherries and dip them in the blender as well.
Blitz the cherries into a creamy smoothie. Filter the pulp, if you prefer a clear, particle-free cherriade. Then add the sparkling water and sugar (or honey) and stir until completely dissolved.
Transfer the cherriade to a glass jug and serve immediately, garnished with mint leaves and ice cubes.
