Add a Spoonful of Jam to Make Flavorful Lemonade Easily

A glass of cold lemonade is good on its own, but whimsical lemonade is another layer of flavor that can be as simple as adding a spoonful of your favorite jam.

Ideally, you can spoon in the jam while you make the lemonade so you can taste it, see how it is, and then add a little more if you need it, or dilute it a little with water. If you’ve already made your lemonade, you can still enhance the flavor by adding jam before serving. Just about any jam will work as long as you like the taste and it matches the astringency of lemonade, but The Kitchn specially offers fig, cherry, raspberry or strawberry jam as the flavors pair well with citrus.

If you don’t want to add sweetness to lemonade, consider sugar-free jam or just plain fruit puree. If you add it while making lemonade, you can offset the sweeter jam with less sugar or sweetener in your lemonade recipe. This is a simple trick that can make this refreshing summer drink even better.
