How to Make Basque Lemonade
- Steep the lemon zest (from 2 lemons) in 4 cups of water for 24 hours. This will infuse the water with intense lemon flavor.
- After 24 hours, remove the lemon zest. Add 1 cup of sugar to the infused water and stir until completely dissolved.
- Add 2 cups of dry white wine and 1 cup of Txakoli (slightly sparkling Basque wine) to the mixture. Stir gently to combine.
- Add the juice of 6 lemons and stir.
- Serve immediately or chill for later. Garnish with lemon slices or fresh mint for an extra touch of elegance.
