Nothing quenches your thirst on a hot summer day better than a cold glass of homemade lemonade. I absolutely love this recipe. I found it years ago in a magazine..I think. Give it a try, you'll love it!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups lemon juice (about 8-9 large lemons)
water
ice cubes
Cut lemons in half and extract juice. Strain, removing seeds and crushed pulp.
In a 3 quart saucepan, combine 2 cups water and the sugar. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and stirring occasionally, cook until sugar dissolves, 1 to 2 minutes more.
Remove sugar syrup from heat; let cool 5 minutes. Stir lemon juice into sugar syrup.
In a 2 1/2 quart container, combine 4 cups water and the lemon syrup; cover and refrigerate until chilled. When ready to serve lemonade, pour over ice cubes in individual glasses.
