Ingredients:

  • 10 lemons , well scrubbed
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • 1 pinch salt (optional)
  • 5 cups cold water

Directions:

  1. Cut lemons in half lengthwise and slice thinly, as if for garnish.
  2. Mash them with the sugar and salt in a large, deep bowl or crock with an old-fashioned potato masher or heavy wooden spoon until the slices give up their juice, the sugar is dissolved and the juice is syrupy, about 5 minutes.
  3. Pour about half the lemon slices into a sieve over a bowl or pot, pressing the solids to release as much liquid as possible.
  4. Discard the solids and transfer the liquid to a serving pitcher.
  5. Repeat the process with the remaining lemons.
  6. Stir in the water until blended.
  7. Add ice cubes or chill, stirring just before serving over ice.
