Sparkling Lemonade

kathyseppamakiJune 7, 2026June 11, 2026

I have always been hot-natured. So when the summertime rolls around, I love something cold to drink. Now, I will admit that when I was younger, I drank a lot of diet soft drinks. I’ve always liked the fizz…especially during the months when it’s hot outside. But at some point, I realized I really needed to not drink so many soft drinks and drink water instead. So I chose to give up diet soft drinks. But in late spring and into summer, some days I still want something different. I miss the cold bubbles of the diet soft drinks. So I started making this sparkling lemonade, and it really hit the spot!

This sparkling lemonade is super simple! If you don’t have the energy to juice a lemon, that’s okay! You can use lemon juice instead! 3-4 tbsp of lemon juice equals the amount of juice in one lemon! I always sweeten this with stevia, and it tastes great! If you like a little less lemon, just use half the amount.

Hi, I’m Kathy!
I discovered I’m autistic and ADHD (AuDHD) in midlife—right in the thick of menopause and a full-on identity unraveling. Now, I’m on a journey to unmask, heal, and rediscover who I really am. This blog is where I share the messy, magical path of being neurodivergent in midlife and finally coming home to myself. My blog is about finding yourself, choosing joy, and living authentically.
