Best Homemade Lemonade Recipe

Enjoy a glass on your porch!

Looking for a fantastic lemonade recipe? Last summer, Dave and I were treated to the best homemade lemonade we've ever had.

Our friends, Donna and Danny, sure do know how to make lemonade. And not only that, I spied the pitcher of lemonade when Danny opened the refrigerator door. Lo and behold, it was chock full of freshly sliced lemons. What a beautiful sight.

So, thanks to the two of them, here is their wonderful recipe.

homemade lemonade

Ingredients

6 fresh lemons
2 qts. water
2/3 to 1 cup sugar (to your taste)
Ice
2-quart glass pitcher

Directions

Set the lemons in the sun for about two hours to get them nice and warm (perhaps on your porch or patio).

Then roll the lemons to loosen them up inside. Slice the lemons and discard the ends.

In the 2 quart glass pitcher, add the sliced lemons, 2/3 cup sugar and fill with water.

Let it set in the refrigerator overnight and do a taste test in the morning. You may want to add a little extra sugar. Serve over ice and enjoy!
