How to Make Romanian Orangeade

  1. Wash and zest one orange. Set zest aside.
  2. Juice 4 large oranges and 2 large lemons. Strain the juice through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any pulp or seeds.
  3. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar with 4 cups of cold water. Stir over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat.
  4. Add the freshly squeezed orange and lemon juice to the sugar syrup. Stir well to combine.
  5. Pour the orangeade into a pitcher or bottle. Add the orange zest to the pitcher.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Serve chilled. Garnish with orange slices if desired.
