Main Ingredients

Optional Garnishes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Juicing the Lemons

    Cut the lemons in half and use a citrus juicer or your hands to extract the juice. Strain the juice through a fine-mesh sieve into a measuring cup to remove seeds and pulp.

  2. 2

    Mixing the Sugar

    In a pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice with the granulated sugar. Stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved.

  3. 3

    Adding Water

    Slowly pour the water into the pitcher with the lemon juice and sugar mixture. Stir thoroughly to combine all the ingredients.

Serving

  1. 4

    Chilling

    Refrigerate the lemonade for at least 30 minutes to chill before serving. This helps enhance the flavors.

  2. 5

    Garnishing

    Serve the lemonade in glasses over ice. Optionally, garnish each glass with fresh mint leaves and a slice of lemon for added flavor and presentation.
