Homemade Lemonade Recipe

It's summertime and homemade lemonade is simply a delight in the hotter weather. Try out this recipe for a refreshing burst of citrus flavour. This recipe yields two small glasses of homemade lemonade. To make a pitcher, multiply the recipe by three.

Ingredients:

4 Lemons

3-4 tbsp Granulated Sugar

A few sprigs of fresh mint

Ice

Method:

• Squeeze the juice of 3½ lemons into a large glass or jug. You can place a small sieve on top of your glass or jug if you wish to strain the bits and pips.

• Top with water and ensure its colour still remains cloudy to prevent the juice from becoming too diluted.

• Stir in 3 tablespoons of sugar until it dissolves. Sip and add more sugar if it tastes too tart.

• Thinly slice the remaining half of your lemon and thoroughly wash the mint leaves. Stir both into the glass or jug with ice.

Ah, refreshing!
