How to Make The Best Ever Lemonade
- Scrub 6-8 lemons thoroughly and cut them in half.
- Place the lemon halves in a large, heat-resistant pitcher.
- Add 1 ½ cups granulated sugar to the pitcher.
- In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil.
- Carefully pour the boiling water over the lemons and sugar in the pitcher. Stir gently until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Let the mixture steep and cool for 20 minutes.
- Squeeze the juice from the lemon halves into the pitcher using a juicer or by hand. Discard the lemon halves.
- Strain the lemonade through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into another pitcher to remove any pulp or seeds.
- Refrigerate the lemonade for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
- Serve over ice in tall glasses. Garnish with fresh mint sprigs.
- For pink lemonade, add a dash of grenadine to each glass.
