Recently we got a whole bunch of lemons so my kids used our juicer to get the juices out of them. Unfortunately at the time I didn't know about the tip of microwaving the lemons a short time and rubbing them around before doing this in order to get more juice out of them!
Today I decided to make some lemonade out of them. Here's the recipe I used.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 cups white sugar (I'm sure other sweeteners would work as well)
- 8 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups lemon juice
DIRECTIONS
- In a small saucepan, combine sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to boil and stir to dissolve sugar. Allow to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until chilled.
- Remove seeds from lemon juice, but leave pulp. In pitcher, stir together chilled syrup, lemon juice and remaining 7 cups water.
Enjoy some great lemonade! |
