Ingredients
  

1 ripe dragonfruit (pitaya), peeled and diced

1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)

1 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)

4 cups cold water

Ice cubes

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Lemon slices for garnish

Instructions
 

Begin by blending the diced dragonfruit in a blender until it becomes a smooth puree. If you prefer a smoother texture, you can strain it through a fine mesh sieve, but this is optional.

    In a pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice and granulated sugar. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

      Add the cold water to the pitcher and mix thoroughly to combine.

        Carefully fold the dragonfruit puree into the lemonade mixture, ensuring it distributes evenly throughout.

          Taste the lemonade and adjust the sweetness if desired by adding more sugar or water to your liking.

            Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.

              To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the dragonfruit lemonade over the ice, and garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices.

                Enjoy your refreshing and vibrant Dragonfruit Lemonade!
