How to Make Lemonade
Lemonade, that classic summer quencher, is easily made from scratch. The best version combines a simple sugar syrup and fresh squeezed lemon juice. This recipe serves two. Things You'll Need
1 c. sugar
1 c. water
1 large lemon
16 to 20 oz. cold water
ice
garnishes (optional): mint sprig, lemon slice, maraschino cherry
Steps.Make sugar syrup: Combine 1 c. sugar and 1 c. water in a saucepan and heat to boiling. Remove from heat, stir to dissolve sugar completely, and allow to cool. (You'll only use a couple of tablespoons per serving, but this is a good item to make ahead and store in the refrigerator, covered. It keeps for weeks.)
For each serving, combine the juice of half a lemon, 2 tbsp. of the sugar syrup and 8 to 10 oz. cold water in a tall glass.
Add ice and any of the garnishes (or all of them, if you're feeling festive). Serve immediately.
Tips & Warnings
One lemon, depending on its size, will yield about 1/4 to 1/3 c. juice.
For a quick microwave version, combine 2 tbsp. sugar and 2 tbsp. water in a tall, microwave-safe glass. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir to dissolve completely, cool a bit, then add fresh lemon juice, cold water and ice, if desired.
Be extremely careful when handling hot sugar syrup. It can cause a nasty burn. A child can make the lemonade once the syrup is cooled, but an adult should do this first step.

First cut or slice some fresh lemons. Then make some
sugar solution by adding sugar with hot water in a glass jar.
Pour the lemon juice into the jar containing the sugar solution
and add some cold water and ice cubes. Then finally add the
sliced lemons into the jar, stir them well and serve in glass
mugs.

Add it to a pitcher of water with some sugar and ice and it should do the trick. It depends on how much Lemonade you want ot make and how strong you want it.

Add sugar and water until you like the taste.

I like a lot of water and not too much sugar.
