Description

A refreshing, sweet lemonade that you can make at home. And, at a fraction of what you’d pay for freshly squeezed lemonade on the boardwalk or at a county fair!

Ingredients

  • ½  Lemon
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • Ice Cubes
  • Lemon Slice For Garnish (optional)

Preparation

1. Squeeze the lemon over a tall glass, making sure to strain out the seeds with your hands (the more pulp, the better).

2. Fill a tall glass with water until 3/4 full (about 1 cup of water—if it’s more water, squeeze in a little extra lemon juice).

3. Stir in sugar, adding more if you like a sweeter lemonade.

4. Add ice and garnish with a lemon slice (optional, but recommended!).
