This recipe makes the perfect lemonade. No need for mixes anymore.
In
a pan heat 1 1/2 cup of sugar with 1 cup of water, until sugar is dissolved,
slightly to a boil.
Take
off heat & cool. Then refrigerate for at least an hour.
Add
this liquid sugar to 7 cups of water & 1 1/2 cups of lemon juice.
I
used my juicer for the lemon juice, about 7 lemons peeled.
For the ice cubes, I juiced 1 med
beet and diluted with water, about 2 cups. I was able to make 4 trays of
cubes. If you don't have a juicer, you can cook a beet peeled in a pot of
water, the water will turn red/pink. If the color is very dark, you can dilute with more water.
