Refreshing Lemonade

 What is the old saying "When life gives you lemons, make Lemonade". This super easy recipe is from Martha Stewart, but there is not much more than making a simple sugar syrup adding lemon juice and then adding sparkling water to your preferred taste.

Ingredients

1 cup water

1 cup caster sugar

2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice

Sparkling mineral water or soda water

Mint leaves and slices of lemon to garnish

Method

In a small saucepan combine sugar and water. Bring to the boil stirring constantly until sugar is completely dissolved.

Remove from heat, cool and then refrigerate.

When ready to serve combine sugar syrup and lemon juice in a pitcher.

Let guests serve the lemonade concentrate with their preferred amount of sparkling mineral or soda water.

Add ice and garnish with sliced lemon and mint.

So refreshing.
