Easy Lemonade

**jaiyenyen** · 16-06-2013, 08:40 PM

There are certain moments, (Okay, not many) when beer cannot quench a thirst. These moments call for something non alcoholic.......Like lemonade.

It's simple to make, and really hits the spot.

Gently heat one cup of water.
Add one cup of sugar, and stir until disolved.
Allow to cool.
Add one cup of lemon juice, and three cups of water.
Chill.

That's it.

If you want it fizzy, just add three cups of soda water to the lemon juice instead.

Great job. Can you make the syrup and then keep it for another time? Does it go a bit crystally if you do?

Don't know.
I might try freezing some next time, but really, this is so quick to make that it's probably just as easy to make the syrup as and when you need it.
The longest part of the process was waiting for the syrup to cool.

Is it really one cup of sugar dissolving in one cup of water?

**jaiyenyen** · 17-06-2013, 05:54 AM

Yes.
But that only makes the syrup. Then you add one cup of lemon juice and three more cups of water.

Ok, cheers.

I just figured that 1 cup of water wouldn't be able to dissolve that much sugar.

Raw sugar or white?

I'll try it.

Personally I prefer four limes quartered and squeezed into a jar of ice cold water. Then drop the squeezed limes in the jar. Organic preferably.

Can't deal with the sugar thing.
