Recipe Introduction


Every year my BIL, Brian generously sends us some of the bounty from his lemon tree. I've done all kinds of things with them, but this year I decided to go classic - Lemonade from scratch. It was the best lemonade I've ever made and one of the best I've ever tasted. I even made it with Splenda rather than sugar! If you make it with Splenda, you don't have to bother with the boiling water - the Splenda will dissolve in room temperature water. Serve VERY cold.


List of Ingredients




1 1/2 c. fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 c. sugar (or Splenda) - adjust to your taste
1 c. boiling water
7 c. ice-cold water

For serving (optional):
crushed ice
thin slices of lemon

Recipe



Dissolve the sugar in the 1 cup of boiled water (unnecessary if using Splenda). When it is completely dissolved, add 7 cups of ice water. Stir well. Serve with lots of crushed ice and lemon slices.

Makes 1/2 gallon.
