Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- Juice from 4-6 lemons
- 4 cups cold water
Preparation:
Blend 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar well in small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, until sugar dissolves completely. Let cool and refrigerate. (This is the simple syrup.)Mix the simple syrup well with the juice from 4-6 lemons (strained or not, as you like) and stir well. Add 4 cups cold water and mix. Try using sparkling water for some fizz! Pour into thermos or large jug, adding thin lemon slices if you’d like. I like to make more lemonade and freeze it in ice cube trays, adding the cubes to the lemonade so it’s never diluted as the ‘ice’ melts. This amount serves 6 people
