How to make Fresh Lemonade with Vanilla Extract, a Caribbean way

Always wash your fruits before juicing. Cut the lemons or limes, whichever you want to use, in half, with a lemon juice squeezer juice the lemons or limes. Add the fresh juice to a pitcher with cold water. It is sweetened with honey, organic sugar, or brown sugar. Add a splash of vanilla extract. Stir well and serve immediately.
