Who doesn’t love a nice cool glass of freshly squeezed lemonade on a hot Summer’s day? Sure, you can make the mix {I’m okay with that, really!} But, nothing takes the place of homemade. This recipe is easy and delicious~ I just couldn’t pass up sharing it with you. Enjoy often with friends and family…
Just 3 ingredients. Lemons, water and sugar. This is hot water with sugar disolving.
I have a very basic juicer that does a great job….
My little girl LOVES to help….so sweet!
She’s such a good big sister… teaching her little sister how to juice lemons 😉
Look at all of that freshly squeezed lemon juice! So refreshing!!!
Add it to the hot sugar water, then add cold water, ice and lemon slices.
Enjoy! Ahhhh…..
