The Best Meyer Lemon Lemonade Recipe

• portions: 8 servings
• temps actif: 10 minutes
• temps total: 1 hour 20 minutes

Ingrédients

1 cups water

3/4 cup sugar (up to 1 cup if using conventional lemons)

1 cup Meyer lemon juice (need 4 large lemons, approximately)

6 cups cold water

Ice (for serving)

Instructions

Make a simple syrup. Combine 1 cup water and 3/4 cup sugar in a small sauce pan (a tall 2-quart size is better to catch the splashes). Cook on medium-heat for 5 minutes until the sugar is dissolved, stir occasionally. Remove the simple syrup from the heat and set aside to cool down.

Cut the Meyer lemons in half and juice about 1 cup of lemon juice. If your citrus juicer does not strain the seeds, use a fine mesh strainer to strain the lemon juice and pour the lemon juice into a large pitcher (8-cup size or larger).

Add the simple syrup and 6 cups of cold water into the pitcher, stir, and refrigerate until cold (1-2 hours).

When ready to serve, pour the Meyer lemon lemonade into glasses half filled with ice.
