Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and 1 cup of water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and let cool.
- In a large pitcher, combine the cooled sugar syrup, fresh lemon juice, and 3 cups of water. Stir well.
- Taste the lemonade and adjust the sweetness or tartness as needed by adding more sugar or lemon juice.
- Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- To serve, fill glasses with ice cubes and pour the lemonade over the ice. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves, if desired.
Notes
- Use fresh lemons for the best flavor.
- Adjust the sugar to your liking. Start with less, then add more if needed.
- To keep your lemonade cool without diluting the flavor, try making ice cubes with some lemonade.
- Leftover lemonade can be stored in the fridge for up to 7 days.
- For an added twist, infuse your lemonade with fresh herbs like mint or basil.
