How to Make Lively Lemon Tingler

  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup water.
  2. Stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is clear.
  3. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely to room temperature.
  4. Add 1 cup of fresh lemon juice and stir well to combine.
  5. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any pulp or seeds (optional, but recommended for a smoother drink).
  6. Transfer the chilled lemon-sugar mixture to an airtight, non-metallic container and refrigerate until ready to serve (at least 2 hours).
  7. To make each serving, fill a tall glass halfway with the chilled lemon-sugar mixture.
  8. Top with ginger ale, Sprite, or 7-Up to fill the glass.
  9. Add ice cubes if desired.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
