Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar white sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup lime leaves about 20 leaves
- 1/4 cup chopped lemongrass stalk
- 1 cup fresh lime juice for me, this was about 7 limes
- 3 cups cold water + 1 cup ice
- Lime wheels for garnish optional
Instructions
- Combine the sugar, 1 cup of water, lime leaves, and lemongrass in a saucepan over medium heat. Allow the simple syrup to steep for 10 minutes. Strain the leaves and lemongrass pieces from the liquid. Let it cool for 10 minutes.
- Combine the cooled syrup with 3 cups of cold water and 1 cup of ice. Stir in the lime juice. Serve over ice with lime wheels, if desired.

Notes
- Store Thai Limeade in the refrigerator in a sealed container, a glass jar, or a pitcher. It stays fresh for up to 5 days. Freezing is an option; pour it into ice cube trays for easy, portioned use later. If it separates after thawing, simply stir or shake well to recombine the flavors.
