Low Calorie Raspberry Lemonade
This Low Calorie Raspberry Lemonade is just 9 calories, low in sugar and carbs too!I use my favorite zero calorie all natural sugar (made from real sugar cane!) to sweeten this lemonade, but any sugar will work in it's place. Special Tip: You can swap the lemon juice for lime juice if you want to make a raspberry limeade!
