Ingredients

  • 1 cup sugar (can reduce to 3/4 cup)

  • 1 cup water (for the simple syrup)

  • 1 cup lemon juice

  • 3 to 4 cups cold water (to dilute)

Directions

  • Make simple syrup by heating the sugar and water in a small saucepan until the sugar is dissolved completely.
  • While the sugar is dissolving, use a juicer to extract the juice from 4 to 6 lemons, enough for one cup of juice.
  • Add the juice and the sugar water to a pitcher.
  • Add 3 to 4 cups of cold water, more or less to the desired strength.
  • Refrigerate 30 to 40 minutes. If the lemonade is a little sweet for your taste, add a little more straight lemon juice to it.
  • Serve with ice, sliced lemons.
