This is something the Hubbs and I have been having a lot of this summer. Actually we can't seem to get enough of it. It is so refreshing and not overly sweet - it's great in this hot hot heat! I've done a lot of different things to it like adding other concentrated juices such as tart cherry, cranberry and blueberry. I've also put the lemonade in the blender with some fresh berries, mostly strawberries and raspberries, blended till smooth and had an awesome frothy, fruity lemonade. The possiblities are endless. Hubbs suggested mango to try next - sounds good!
Homemade Lemonade:

| Fresh Lemonade garnished with lemon slices. |
Lemonade:
1/4 cup turbinado/raw sugar
juice of 1 1/2 lemons, rolled on the counter to soften
2 cups filtered water
My mom always sends me amazing homemade canned goods from Michigan and I have also done my share of canning here in NY, so I have a ton of glass jars, which is what Hubbs and I store most of our food and all of our drinks in.
1. Juice the lemons and place in a jar. Add the sugar and filtered water, cover with the lid and shake until the sugar dissolves - this will take some time because the sugar is large granulated.
That's it! So easy and tasty!
Enjoy!
