Instructions
Step 1: Juice the Lemons
- Roll the lemons on the counter with your palm to help release the juices.
- Cut them in half and squeeze out 1 1/2 cups of fresh lemon juice. Use a strainer to remove seeds and pulp for a smoother drink.
Step 2: Dissolve the Sugar
- In a large pitcher, combine the sugar and 1 cup of warm water.
- Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved. This creates a simple syrup that blends better than adding sugar directly to cold water.
Step 3: Mix the Lemonade
- Add the fresh lemon juice to the pitcher.
- Pour in the remaining 4 cups of cold water and stir.
- Taste and adjust – add more sugar for extra sweetness or more lemon juice for a tangier flavor.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
- Fill glasses with ice and pour the lemonade over it.
- Garnish with lemon slices for a restaurant-style look.
- Enjoy immediately or refrigerate for up to 3 days for the best flavor.
