Rhubarb Lemonade

Rhubarb Lemonade

The vibrant tartness of rhubarb defines this quintessentially British spring beverage. When combined with fresh lemon, it creates an invigoratingly sharp cordial that’s perfect when diluted into lemonade. The use of AquaTru purified water enhances the crisp rhubarb flavour by removing any unwanted chlorine or mineral traces. Rhubarb isn't just tasty—it's also a good source of antioxidants and has been noted for its cholesterol-lowering properties. Ideal for enjoying outdoors at a sunny picnic or a relaxing day in the garden, this lemonade brings the essence of spring to every sip.
