There are several essential oil lemonade recipes but after some trial and error, this one is my favorite. I made it for a recent Young Living Essential Oils class and since a few have asked for it, here it is!

And the entire thing disappeared! Refreshing, fresh squeezed without the fake mix taste. Color is darker due to the blue agave.
Young Living Lemon Essential Oil Lemonade Recipe
- 1 gal. of filtered water
- juice of two organic lemons
- juice of one organic lime
- about 15 oz. of organic blue agave (test as you go to adjust the sweetness to your liking)
- 10-12 drops of Young Living lemon essential oil
- lemon and lime slices for garnish
Serve in glass with ice. Rather than add ice directly to the lemonade which waters it down, I serve ice in a separate container.

Optional: I also served it up with lime garnish for glasses (rub lime around glass rim and dip in colored sugar). Offer a small bit of blueberry juice or raspberry liquor for guests to create their own summer cooler.

Good post. I love lavendar oil. The lemon is good also. I have used it in couple recipes.
Thanks, Ruth! I’m so happy you stopped by! xo
I would like to make this and was wondering about the dispenser. Does it need to be all glass and stainless steel? Is the spout on yours stainless steel? I am going to go shopping for a dispenser and want to know what it should be made.
Thanks,
Catherine
Ideally, yes, it should all be glass and stainless steel. The spout on mine is not. However, my beverages are heavily diluted and the drink dispenser is empty within 1-2 hours. I haven’t experienced any issues personally and do not advise the use of citrus essential oils in plastic. I recommend finding a dispenser that is of glass/stainless steel construction. Best of luck!
