Old-Fashioned Lemonade


Yesterday, MOTC and I were strolling a local Spring Festival and we decided to treat ourselves to some fresh lemondae...you know those lemonade stands that have INCREDIBLE lemonade. It inspired me to share a recipe for lemonade...

Old-Fashioned Lemonade

8 cups water
1-3/4 c. sugar
1-1/2 c. lemon juice (more fun to use fresh lemons even though more work, but nobody is looking!)

In a saucepan, bring 1 cup of water and the sugar to a boil until the sugar is disolved. Allow to cool to room temperature and then place in fridge until chilled.

In a pitcher, combine simple syrup, lemon juice and remaining water. Serve with a slice of lemon and ENJOY!

Certainly not as easy as adding water to a powder and stirring, but you may want to bust this one out when company is coming!
