Zubereitung von Old Fashioned Lemonade

**Make the Simple Syrup:** In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup water, and the zest of 2 lemons.
**Simmer the Syrup:** Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
**Steep the Flavor:** Remove from heat, cover, and let steep for 15 minutes to infuse the syrup with lemon zest flavor.
**Strain and Cool:** Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a 2-quart pitcher to remove the zest. Let it cool completely.
**Add Lemon Juice:** Add 1 1/2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 8-10 lemons) to the cooled syrup.
**Add Lemon Rind:** Stir in the finely chopped rind of 1 lemon for extra zest.
**Add Water:** Add 4 cups of cold water to the pitcher.
**Stir and Chill:** Stir well to combine all ingredients. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
**Serve:** Serve over ice. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.
