Boisson rafraîchissante à base de citron frais, idéale pour l'été. Prête en 10 minutes.

# What You'll Need:

→ Lemonade Base

01 - 1 cup fresh lemon juice (approximately 4-5 lemons)
02 - 4 cups cold water
03 - 1/2 cup granulated sugar, adjust to taste
04 - Ice cubes to taste

→ Garnish (Optional)

06 - Fresh mint leaves

# Directions:

01 - Press the lemons using a citrus juicer to extract fresh juice, removing any seeds.
02 - In a large pitcher, combine the lemon juice with sugar. Stir thoroughly with a wooden spoon until the sugar completely dissolves.
03 - Pour in the cold water and mix well to ensure even distribution of sweetness.
04 - Add ice cubes to the pitcher. Taste the lemonade and adjust sweetness by adding more sugar or dilute with additional water if needed.
05 - Pour into glasses and garnish with lemon slices and fresh mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately while chilled.

# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • Takes ten minutes from cutting board to glass, no complicated equipment needed beyond a simple citrus press and a pitcher
  • The kind of drink that makes people pause mid conversation and ask what exactly you put in it
02 -
  • Lemon juice can turn bitter if left sitting too long, so make this right before serving for the brightest flavor
  • The sugar must be completely dissolved before adding ice, or you will end up with gritty sweetness at the bottom of your glass
03 -
  • Zest the lemons before squeezing and add those fragrant yellow strips to the pitcher for an aromatic punch
  • Rub a lemon wedge around the rim of each glass for an extra hit of citrus essence before pouring
