Tips:
- Choose the right lemons: Meyer lemons are sweeter and less acidic than regular lemons, making them a great choice for lemonade. If you can't find Meyer lemons, use regular lemons and add a little more sugar or honey to taste.
- Use filtered or cold water: Cold water will help the lemonade chill faster and prevent it from becoming diluted. If you're using tap water, filter it first to remove any impurities.
- Make a simple syrup: A simple syrup is a mixture of equal parts sugar and water that is heated until the sugar dissolves. Adding simple syrup to your lemonade will help it sweeten evenly and prevent the sugar from crystallizing.
- Chill the lemonade before serving: The best way to enjoy lemonade is chilled. You can chill it in the refrigerator for a few hours or overnight, or you can add ice cubes to each glass.
- Garnish with fresh herbs or fruit: Fresh herbs like mint or basil, or slices of fruit like strawberries or raspberries, can add a refreshing touch to your lemonade.
