Lemonade

[Yvonne N.]

Do you mix yours with warm water and then ice it or do you use cold water from the start?

I am sure I learnt somewhere that real lemonade is made with hot water...

<span style="font-size: 8pt">...but would not that affect the Vitamin C?</span>

How do you make yours?

Re: Lemonade

I start with hot water....the sugar dissolves much quicker.

I make mine from boiling water so the sugar will dissolve.</span>

Re: Lemonade

This is my favorite summertime drink. I make a pitcher every 3 or 4 days!

I start with a simple syrup (1 parter water to 1 part sugar.) I use 1 cup of water and 1 cup of sugar, bring to a boil and allow to cool to room temp. I make this all week long b/c it is used in a lot of cocktails that I make as well. If I have the storage in my fridge I will keep a large bottle of it ready to use.

I squeeze about 15 lemons with my juicer, add the simple syrup, and cold filtered water to taste. I like it super sour so I don't add a lot of waster. Red likes his super sweet so I add more water and more simple syrup to his glass.

Yum!!!!

You call that lemonade. Just get Paul Newman's lemonade in the carton chill and pour.

Re: Lemonade

I like an even mix of lemons/limes (key limes at that)
