The Best Chick Fil A Lemonade
The classic Chick Fil A lemonade is so good, but it's loaded with sugar.
And the diet Chick Fil A lemonade is pretty much just as delicious, but it still has some sugar in it to give it that wonderfully sweet taste.
So, with that said, if you've wanted to enjoy the Chick Fil A lemonade in a completely sugar free way, this copycat Chick Fil A lemonade recipe is just what you need.
My healthier version of Chick Fil A's lemonade is just as sweet, just as refreshing, and has all the lemon flavor that makes it such a famous lemonade.
And making lemonade at home with this recipe is easier than driving to the fast food chain.
Seriously, all it takes is a little mixing and you'll have yourself a diet lemonade to offer guests on a hot day in the summer.
Oh, and if you want to tie all of the tart flavors together, you can serve this diet lemonade with my keto lemon bars or keto lemon cookies!
Ingredients
As I mentioned earlier, you'll need just three simple ingredients to make this copycat Chick Fil a Lemonade recipe. And I think you'll be pretty impressed that these ingredients could make such a refreshing and flavor-filled diet lemonade.
Here’s everything you'll need to make this copycat Chick Fil A Lemonade recipe:
- 8-10 Lemons, squeezed
- 1 cup Granulated Erythritol
- 5 cups of water
See, just three simple ingredients is all it takes to create a large pitcher of this delightful drink.
Oh, and make sure to use fresh lemons to add real lemon juice to the lemonade. It makes the flavor so much better.
Making This Chick Fil A Lemonade Sugar Free
Now, my secret ingredient that makes this lemonade taste perfectly sweet is granulated erythritol.
It makes this lemonade totally sugar free while still giving it just the right amount of sweetness.
I like to use Granular Swerve, but you can also use granulated monk fruit or any other sugar free sweetener of your choice!
How to Make Chick Fil A Lemonade
Like I said earlier, this copycat Chick Fil A lemonade is so easy to make and it takes just minutes to put together.
So, get out the ingredients and let's make this diet lemonade!
Step 1: Combining the Ingredients
In a large bowl add half a cup of warm water, the lemon juice from about 8 lemons - and only real lemon juice gives it the best flavor - and the granulated erythritol.
And I know it seems weird to have warm water, but you want the water to be warm enough to dissolve all the erythritol. The lemonade will get chilled in the next step.
Anyway, now you can mix the water, lemon juice, and erythritol until the granulated erythritol completely dissolves and combines.
Step 2: Cool and Serve
Once it's mixed, transfer the lemonade from the bowl to a large pitcher with ice for serving. Alternatively, you can add it right to a few glasses if you're ready to drink.
With that said, what I like to do is make the lemonade in advance and leave it to chill in the fridge for at least an hour before pouring it over ice. This is by far the most refreshing way to enjoy it and make sure it doesn't get watered down.
Then, lastly, I’ll garnish the lemonade with a fresh lemon slice and a sprig of mint and serve it!
Storing This Chick Fil A Lemonade
This Chick Fil A lemonade recipe will make about 5 cups, so it's perfect for having chilled in the fridge and ready to drink. And if you want more, just double or triple the recipe!
With that said, this Chick Fil A lemonade stores super well in the fridge in a sealed jug or glass bottle for about a week.
Wrapping It Up
And there you have it, the Chick Fil A lemonade recipe with a little twist to make it sugar free and healthier.
This refreshing drink is a great one to pull out when you’re entertaining and it barely requires any effort!
I have a feeling it will be your go-to drink in the summer. At least it will be for me.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this Chick Fil A lemonade as much as I do. If you make it, leave a comment below and let me know what you think.

Delicious! Since lemons, especially homegrown lemons vary in size and amount of juice you get, an actual lemon juice amount would have been helpful. I had to guess and taste test then adjust a couple of times. It came out great! Thanks!
Pati says
Sorry. Got to add the stars!
