Many parents do not allow their children to drink lemonade. And they are absolutely right when it comes to too sweet, carbonated drink, industrial production. But who can object to a glass - another great homemade lemonade?
It is necessary
-
- 5-6 large lemons
- 1 cup of sugar
- 1 glass of water
- 4 cups cold boiled water
- Jug
- Ice
Instructions
Step 1
The simplest homemade lemonade is made from syrup and lemon juice.
To make the syrup, pour 1 cup of water into a saucepan and add one cup of granulated sugar. Simmer over low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved. Turn off the heat and tackle the lemons.
Step 2
Rinse the lemons with boiling water, or microwave them for a few minutes. This way you get more juice out of them and disinfect them at the same time. Squeeze the juice with a juicer or with your hands.
Step 3
Pour chilled boiled water into a pitcher. Choose a jug so that the water, lemon juice, and syrup together fill no more than ¾ of its volume.
Step 4
Add sugar syrup and lemon juice to the water, stir.
Place ice cubes in lemonade and store in the refrigerator.
Step 5
You can garnish the lemonade with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves.
It goes especially well with lemonade lemon balm - lemon mint.
Step 6
The recipe for ginger lemonade is slightly more complicated.
Make exactly the same sugar syrup as for regular homemade lemonade.
Squeeze out the lemon juice.
Step 7
Peel the ginger root and grate. Squeeze the ginger juice through cheesecloth.
Step 8
Mix boiled water, syrup, ginger and lemon juice in a jug.
Add ice cubes and leave in the refrigerator for at least half an hour.
