There are few drinks that better accompany summer than a glass of ice cold, thirst-quenching lemonade. A number of delicious store-bought lemonades are available to choose from, but if you’re thirsty for something a little different or you need an activity to enjoy during a lazy summer’s day, consider making this refreshing drink for yourself. All you’ll need is white sugar, water, lemon juice, and a pitcher!
Here’s how to make your own homemade lemonade to enjoy as a refreshing summer treat:
- Combine 1 ¾ cups sugar and 1 cup water in a small sauce pan and bring to boil.
- Stir the boiling mixture to dissolve the sugar. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature, and then cover and put the pain in the refrigerator to chill.
- Pour 1 ½ cups of lemon juice in to a pitcher. If you’re squeezing the lemons yourself, be careful to remove any seeds.
- Add the chilled syrup and an additional 7 cups of water to the pitcher. Stir well.
- Enjoy by itself or with your favorite snack!
