Ingredients:

  • 4 large lemons
  • 1/2-3/4 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 cups ice cubes

Directions:

  1. Grate lemon peels, save for other use (no point in wasting good stuff!).
  2. Roll lemons on the counter to loosen the juice, then juice lemons, and strain into a bowl.
  3. Meanwhile, mix the generous half-cup water with sugar, and bring to a boil, and boil, stirring often, until sugar dissolves.
  4. Remove sugar water from heat, let sit for a couple of minutes.
  5. Add lemon juice to sugar, and stir to mix.
  6. Pour into a pitcher, add remaining water, and ice cubes.
  7. Stir until ice dissolves.
  8. Now, this might be a bit strong for some, so adjust accordingly. I like mine very tart and strong.
  9. Enjoy!
