Use one cup of sugar if you plan to serve lemonade with a simple syrup. To extract the most juice from lemons, microwave them at HIGH for about 15 seconds.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup water
1 to 1 1/2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind (about 2 lemons)
1 1/2 cups fresh lemon juice (about 13 lemons)
7 cups ice water
Directions:
1. Bring 1/2 cup water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in sugar and grated lemon rind, stirring until sugar is dissolved; remove from heat. Stir in lemon juice and ice water.
2. Limeade: Substitute 1 Tbsp. grated lime rind for lemon rind and 1 1/2 cups fresh lime juice for lemon juice, and proceed with recipe as directed.
