- 7 cups water divided
- 1 1/2 cups sugar

Notes
- **recipe makes 8 cups - each serving is 1 cup**
- Storage Information and Shelf Life
- Once made, store lemonade in a covered pitcher in the fridge for up to 1 week.
- This recipe is freezer-friendly, which makes it easy to enjoy a glass whenever the craving strikes. Make your concentrate with simple syrup and lemon juice and freeze into ice cubes before adding water.
- Store the lemonade cubes in an airtight container in the freezer for up to three months. When you want to make your lemonade, remove as many ice cubes as you want, let them thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature, and add enough water to taste!
