How to make your own lemonade

I don’t like bought lemonade but I LOVE home made lemonade and it’s so easy to make your own.

Lemonade

What you’ll need:

3 cups of cold water
1 cup of lemon juice
3/4 cup of sugar
Lemon slices
Ice

Method:

Squeeze your lemons.
Combine water, lemon juice and sugar in a jug and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
Add ice and lemon slices.
Drink!

You can also make peachy lemonade by blending a can of peaches with a cup of your lemonade and then adding to your mix.

Other fruit can be added to garnish, my favourite are strawberries and mint, these are particulary delicious.

Try it out and let me know how you go. Please add your comment below.

I stayed at a hotel once and they actually made lemonade for us when we went up to our room, it was really cool. Easy as well!

Thanks for this recipe. I had been looking for one as my son has been wanting to make lemonade for everyone. It’ll be great when we have an abundance of lemons on our lemon tree .

Yum ! I make it with filtered water and sweetened with some yacon syrup (low GI).
