Fresh Squeezed Lemonade~


This is a big hit with not only my children, but with quite a few of my children's little friends as well. It taste so much better than the "fake" stuff, and is not any more expensive to make, then buying soda pop. (Which is not as healthy of a choice.) We make this more during the summer, but we do make it all year long. It goes great with pizza or cook outs!

Fresh Squeezed Lemonade Recipe

6 lemons
1 and 1/2 cup of sugar (you can taste it, and decide if you wish to add more.

Squeeze your lemons with a simple lemon juicer (I got mine years ago at Wal-mart for something like 3.00)

Strain the juice when pouring into pitcher, to remove the seeds

add sugar and 2 quarts of water. (this is just a normal sized pitcher, like you would use for 1 pkg of kool-aid. )

mix with spoon, and serve over ice. This only takes a few minutes, and is really a treat!
