How to Make Lemonade

Making lemonade is as easy as squeezing, stirring, and sipping! Start by dissolving the sugar in water—this step is key to avoid gritty lemonade. In a large pitcher or bowl, combine 12 pints of water and 6 cups of sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved; if you’re feeling fancy, use warm water for quicker results.

Next, grab your limes or lemons and zest away! Use a grater to remove the outer rind of 3 fruits, adding the zest to your sugar-water mixture. This adds a subtle but vibrant citrus kick that sets your lemonade apart.

Now, for the juice. Squeeze the juice from 12 large limes or lemons, aiming for about 3 cups. A citrus juicer or reamer makes this step a breeze. Pour the juice into the pitcher and stir well to combine all the flavors.

Finally, fill your glasses with cracked ice and pour the lemonade over. For an extra-special touch, garnish with lemon slices or a sprig of mint. Serve chilled, and enjoy!

Pro Tips for Perfect Lemonade

  • For extra zest: Try adding a splash of lemon or lime soda for some fizz!
  • Adjust sweetness: Add more or less sugar to suit your personal taste.
  • Infuse with herbs: Add a sprig of mint or basil to make your lemonade feel extra special.
