Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4 large lemons)
  • 1 cup simple syrup
  • 4 cups cold water
  • Ice for serving

Instructions

  • Using a lemon squeezer or your hands, juice the lemons until you reach one cup.
  • In a large pitcher, add the lemon juice, the simple syrup & water.
  • Mix well and enjoy over a glass filled with ice.

Notes

Homemade Lemonade will last in fridge about 7 days. 
By using simple syrup (instead of sugar), you can use cold water to make the Lemonade! Usually sugar does not dissolve well in cold water so this is the perfect way to start a sweet cold drink.
