The weather is heating up and we're getting thirsty! Since we have a flip-flop named Lemon, we decided to whip up some home-made lemonade to cool off. While making lemonade from scratch is a lot more work (our arms are sore from squeezing so many lemons!) than the lazy way, it also tastes so much better! We've got the homemade recipe just for you!
Homemade Yellow Box Lemonade
Ingredients:
- 4 cups Sugar
- 6 cups Water
- 24 whole Lemons, Juiced
- 8 cups Water (additional)
- Ice
Directions:
- Heat 4 cups sugar with 6 cups of water in a medium saucepan until it's dissolved. Set this in the fridge to cool.
- Chill the lemon juice if you have the time.
- Pour the lemon juice into a large vat. Pour in 3/4 of the syrup, then top off the vat with ice. Pour in 8 cups of water (give or take), stir it around, then give it a taste. Add more syrup if it needs sweetness, or more water if it needs dilution.
- Serve immediately!
- Add 2 cups raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, or sliced strawberries to the lemonade for different flavors.
