  • 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 pinch table salt (optional)
  • 5 cups water (cold )

Directions:

  1.

Pour half the lemon slices and syrup through large sieve over bowl or saucepan; press on solids with masher or back of wooden spoon to release as much liquid as possible. Discard solids; transfer liquid to serving pitcher. Repeat process with remaining lemon slices. Stir in water until blended. Chill well and stir to blend before serving, over ice if desired.
