Fresh squeezed lemonade

C loves to make lemonade from scratch with me. She helps roll the lemons, peel the stickers off and squeeze the juice out. 



And of course taste test it all! 


Goofy kid ;)

So I thought I would share our "recipe" .

C's favorite lemonade

7 lemons (2 cups of lemon juice)
1 cup of sugar (add more to taste ;) 
A gallon jar 


Boil the sugar and about 4 cups of water. The point is to just get the sugar dissolved. Add the sugar water and strained lemon juice to your jug. Fill the rest of the jug up with cold water tasting it along the way, so as not to water it down to much. 


I find every batch is different depending on how much juice the lemons give. If you need a little more sugar just add it to your sauce pan with some more water.  
 
 

And enjoy!
