Answer 2

The secret to this lemonade recipe is to use simple syrup. The sugar is completely dissolved and blends beautifully with the tart lemon.

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
Juice from 4-6 lemons
4 cups cold water

PREPARATION:
Blend 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar well in small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring frequently, until sugar dissolves completely. Let cool and refrigerate.
Mix the syrup well with the juice from 4-6 lemons (strained or not, as you like) and stir well.

Add 4 cups cold water and mix. Try using sparkling water for some fizz! Pour into thermos or large jug, adding thin lemon slices if you'd like. I like to make more lemonade and freeze it in ice cube trays, adding the cubes to the lemonade so it's never diluted. This amount serves 6 people . You can increase the amounts of this recipe proportionately, depending on the amount of lemonade you want.

Have a good day!!

Answer 3

This is a very good recipe for you, since you pour some of the lemonade into ice cube trays with a sprig of mint, so that when the ice cube melts it does not water-down your drink. Making the "Sugar Syrup" is also the secret to great lemonade.

Ingredients
Makes about 2 quarts (8 servings)

1 cup water
1-1/2 cups sugar
15 to 18 medium lemons (3 cups juice)
5 cups cold water
1 lemon, washed and thinly sliced
14 small fresh mint sprigs

Preparation
For the sugar syrup, bring water and sugar to a boil in a saucepan, stirring
occasionally, until sugar dissolves. Pour into a bowl. Cool.
Microwave 5 or 6 lemons at a time on High 1 to 1-1/2 minutes, just until warm to
the touch. Cut lemons in half and squeeze juice. Discard seeds and transfer juice
and pulp to a large pitcher. Repeat with remaining lemons. Stir in cooled syrup and
water.
Measure 1-1/2 cups lemonade mixture in a 2-cup glass measure. (Stir sliced lemon
into remaining lemonade mixture; cover and set aside.) Arrange one sprig of mint
per cube in an ice-cube tray; pour in the 1-1/2 cups lemonade mixture. Freeze the
lemonade ice-cube tray 4 hours, until firm. Cover and refrigerate lemonade.
Pour lemonade into tall glasses over ice cubes.

Answer 5

Get a 1 gallon pitcher. In the pitcher, add 2 cups of lemon juice and 2 cups of sugar (or Splenda spoonful). Add enough water to bring the level up to 1 gallon. (**this does NOT mean add 1 gallon of water**) Stir well until sugar is dissolved, and float a few lemon slices on top for garnish.

Answer 6

It's best to do it to your taste. But just take a few lemons, squeeze the juice out of them, add water and sugar (to your liking) and there ya go. I like homemade much more than canned, mix, or condensed. More natural and refreshing.
