Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Juicing the Lemons

    Start by juicing the fresh lemons until you have 1 cup of lemon juice. You can use a manual juicer or an electric juicer for this step.

  2. 2

    Making the Sugar Syrup

    In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar with 1 cup of water. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar completely dissolves. Remove from heat and let it cool.

  3. 3

    Mixing the Base

    In a large pitcher, combine the lemon juice, the remaining 3 cups of water, and the cooled sugar syrup. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Adding Color

    Slowly add 1 tablespoon of grenadine syrup to the pitcher. Stir gently to achieve a delightful pink hue. Adjust the amount of grenadine to your liking.

Serving

  1. 5

    Chill and Serve

    Refrigerate the pink lemonade for at least 30 minutes to chill. Serve over ice and garnish with fresh mint leaves and lemon slices, if desired.
