How to Make Persian Lemonade
- Cut 2 lemons in half and juice them. Set aside.
- Thinly slice the remaining 2 lemons and place them in a heatproof bowl.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the lemon juice, 4 cups of water, and 1 cup of sugar (adjust to your preferred sweetness).
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes, or until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Remove from heat and carefully pour the warm lemon-sugar mixture over the thinly sliced lemons in the bowl.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the lemonade to chill thoroughly.
- After chilling, stir in 1 tablespoon of orange blossom water.
- Fill serving glasses with ice cubes.
- Pour the chilled Persian Lemonade over the ice and serve immediately. Enjoy!
