How to Make Lehmonade
- Combine 4 cups of water and 1 cup of brown sugar in a medium saucepan.
- Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice (approximately 4-6 lemons, depending on size).
- Add the lemon halves to the saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely.
- Strain the lemonade through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lemon pulp and solids.
- Stir in ½ cup of white sugar (or to taste) until dissolved.
- Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled over ice. Garnish with lemon slices or fresh mint, if desired.
