Answers: Just a simple recipe please, and also, what can i add to make it taste great

Cut up lemons, and squeeze them. How many you use depends on how much lemonade you want to make.
Make sugar-water by boiling water with an equal amount of sugar. Allow it to cool before adding the lemons.
Figure that for every four cups of water the juice from one whole lemon should be added. It should be nice and sweet, with the right hint of tartness from the lemon.
Omit the sugar water, and just use plain water, if you want to make unsweetened lemonade.
Add ice cubes, pour into a glass, and enjoy!

lemons. sugar and water

Get water then squeeze lots of lemons into the water the mix. After that put lots of sugar so it will taste sweet and not sour.

you can always buy the Kool-Aid lemonade in the pack .. just add sugar to that.. then.. -->Boo-yah!

Make sugar syrup: Combine 1 c. sugar and 1 c. water in a saucepan and heat to boiling. Remove from heat, stir to dissolve sugar completely, and allow to cool. For each serving, combine the juice of half a lemon, 2 tbsp. of the sugar syrup and 8 to 10 oz. cold water in a tall glass. add ice and serve!

or you could just go to the store and buy a container of lemonade mix which would be much easier

Mix lemon juice with water, add a dash of sugar. Wow, I am so smart. :)

1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water, 1 cup of lemon juice.
(This ratio makes a pretty sweet lemonade. Reduce the amount of sugar if you want your lemonade less sweet or if you are using Meyer lemons which are naturally sweeter than standard lemons.)
The secret to perfect lemonade is to start by making sugar syrup, also known as "simple syrup". Dissolving the sugar in hot water effectively disperses the sugar in the lemonade, instead of having the sugar sink to the bottom.

In a small saucepan heat the sugar and water until the sugar is dissolved completely. While the sugar is dissolving, use a juicer to extract the juice from 4 to 6 lemons, enough for one cup of juice. Add the juice and the sugar water to a pitcher. Add around 4 cups of cold water, more or less to the desired strength. Refrigerate 30 to 40 minutes.

Serve with ice, sliced lemons.

Serves 6.

To start, get lemon(s), water, and sugar. First add water. Measure it in cups and go up by 2's or 4's. (2 cups, 4cups, 6cups) or (4 cups, 8 cups, 12 cups). Then take a good sized lemon and roll it on the counter. This will release the lemon juice so that you will get the maximum amount possible. I would add one good sized lemon per four cups of water. Then, add sugar. 1 to 1 1/2 cups should do for about 4 cups of water and 1 lemon. Stir. After the lemonade is stirred, taste it. If it is not sweet enough or too sweet.

NOT SWEET ENOUGH: add more sugar
TOO SWEET: add more water and / or lemon
TOO TART( LEMONY ) : add more water and / or sugar
NOT TART ENOUGH ( LEMONY ) : add more lemon



** AND REMEMBER: YOU CAN ALWAYS ADD MORE BUT IT IS NOT EASY TO TAKE INGREDIENTS OUT **


To serve: Pour the lemonade into glasses and add ice.
(2 to 4 cubes per glass) Add one lemon slice per glass.

ENJOY!

3 lemons, 2 oranges.
Squeeze the juice of lemons and one orange. Put into a 1 litre pitcher. Add 1 cup sugar. Fill pitcher with cold water, stir well. Slice second orange and float slices in lemonade. Add some ice and enjoy!

Basic Lemonade:

20 min 10 min prep
8 servings

1 cup water
1 cup sugar
4-6 lemons

In a saucepan, combine water and sugar and bring to a boil stirring frequently.
Meanwhile, microwave lemons on high for 30 seconds. Roll on counter and slice and juice.
Combine sugar syrup, lemon juice and 3 cups cold water. Adjust lemon juice to taste.
For GINGER LEMONADE add to water and sugar, 2 tablespoons fresh ginger and proceed as above. Allow mixture to cool and remove ginger before mixing with cold water.
Serve over ice. Number of servings is over ice. (You can substitute sparkling water in place of cold water.).
To make other fruit ades, make lemonade ahead of time and chill. Put 2 cups fruit per batch in blender and blend until smooth and then pour back into pitcher of lemonade.
Suggested fruits: strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, peaches, mangos, watermelon.
For Herb Lemonade place 2 or 3 springs fresh herbs into hot sugar water and muddle slightly. Allow to steep before removing. Suggested herbs: mint, thyme, rosemary.
Additional add-ins: rum, Coco Lopez, half-brewed tea.

When I use the bottled lemon juice, this is what I use:

1 c. lemon juice
1 c. sugar (or equivalent artificial sweetener)
1/2 gal water

I love it. If you are using fresh lemons, there might be some adjustment to make the proportions right.
