Keto Lemonade with Monk Fruit & Turmeric

Looking for a refreshing drink that’s naturally sweet, low in sugar, and totally Instagram-worthy? This monk fruit lemonade is everything you want on a hot day—zesty, minty, and with a gorgeous golden layer that settles at the bottom like liquid sunshine.

It’s quick to whip up, uses clean ingredients, and has a surprising twist thanks to turmeric. Plus, it’s sweetened with monk fruit, so you skip the sugar but keep the flavor.

📝 Ingredients

  • Juice of 2 fresh lemons
  • 2 cups cold water
  • 1–2 teaspoons monk fruit sweetener (adjust to taste)
  • A few sprigs of fresh mint
  • Ice cubes
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric + 1 tablespoon warm water (for the golden layer)

🧃 Instructions

  1. Juice the lemons into a pitcher.
  2. Add the monk fruit sweetener and cold water, and stir until fully dissolved.
  3. Toss in the mint leaves and some ice cubes.
  4. In a small cup, mix the turmeric with warm water until smooth.
  5. Slowly pour the turmeric mixture into your lemonade. It will naturally sink to the bottom, creating a layered effect.
  6. Pour into clear glasses, garnish with mint or a lemon slice, and enjoy!

💡 Tips

  • Want it fizzy? Use sparkling water instead of still.
  • Let it sit for a minute after adding the turmeric—it settles better when undisturbed.
  • Stir before drinking if you want the turmeric blended in.
