Lemonade as we know originated from the Jewish kitchen of the middle ages. Today it is practically impossible to find the ancient and original recipe of the middle ages, where lemonade is made only with lemon, sugar and water.

My traditional recipe that is not affected by industrial products can also be found in my All Sports Cafe’den Sevgiyle book.
