Perfect Lemonade
Is there a more cool and refreshing drink when the weather warms up?! This lemonade had the perfect balance for sweet and tart. Serve it up at your next get-together!
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- 6 cups water
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup lemon juice fresh-squeezed is preferred, but bottled works in a pinch!
Instructions
- Combine the sugar and water in a pot. Bring the mixture to a boil and stir well to ensure all of the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from the mixture from the heat and chill it for at least an hour in the refrigerator.
- Once the mixture has cooled, combine the sugar-water mixture with a pinch of salt and lemon juice in a pitcher.
- Serve with ice.
Notes
- I think fresh-squeezed gives the best flavor, but the bottle is totally fine!
