Preparation of Lemonade

    Roll the lemons on a countertop to soften them. Cut each lemon in half and use a juicer or reamer to extract the juice. Strain the juice to remove seeds and pulp, and set aside.

    Making the Sugar Syrup

    In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved. Once dissolved, remove from heat and let cool.
