Lemons have been in season for a while and now is a good time to make fresh Lemonade. It is very easy to make drink and tastes so much better when you make it fresh.

Ingredients

• 1 to 2 lemons, depending on the size and juiciness.
• 1/4 cup of sugar
• 28 oz of water.
• Lot of ice

Directions

Juice the lemons. I used 1 1/2 lemons since the lemons I had were very juicy. The lemons will become more juicy as they get more ripe, so when purchasing lemons it is better to get ones that are a little soft if you are planning to use them right away. I use a Mexican style juicer (Chef’s Star Lemon Squeezer , Lime Juicer & Citrus Press) since these are very easy to use and they extract all the juice very quickly. Add the juice, sugar and water to a pitcher. The water should be room temperature so that the sugar dissolves. Stir till the sugar is dissolved, then add the ice and stir again to cool the lemonade. Serve and enjoy you fresh home made lemonade.
