EASY LEMONADE SHAKE UPS RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Easy Lemonade Shake Ups Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by hicksofmarvin

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 Lemons
3 Oranges
1 Cup Sugar
Water

Steps:

  • Fill The Rest with Water Shake & Serve

Tips:

  • Choose the right lemons: Look for lemons that are heavy for their size and have a smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid lemons that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Use a citrus juicer: A citrus juicer will make it much easier to extract the juice from the lemons. If you don't have a citrus juicer, you can use a fork or a spoon to squeeze the juice out of the lemons.
  • Add sugar to taste: The amount of sugar you add to your lemonade is a matter of personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Chill the lemonade before serving: Chilled lemonade is more refreshing than warm lemonade. You can chill the lemonade in the refrigerator or freezer.
  • Garnish the lemonade with a lemon slice or a sprig of mint: This will add a festive touch to your lemonade.

Conclusion:

Lemonade is a classic summer drink that is easy to make and enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and refreshing lemonade that will help you beat the heat. So next time you're looking for a refreshing drink, give lemonade a try.
