From the Inquirer Magazine of the Philadelphia Inquirer, August 1998. Unwaxed lemons would be ideal for this if you can find them.

Time 15m

Yield 6 Cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

10 lemons, well scrubbed
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 pinch salt (optional)
5 cups cold water

Steps:

  • Cut lemons in half lengthwise and slice thinly, as if for garnish.
  • Mash them with the sugar and salt in a large, deep bowl or crock with an old-fashioned potato masher or heavy wooden spoon until the slices give up their juice, the sugar is dissolved and the juice is syrupy, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour about half the lemon slices into a sieve over a bowl or pot, pressing the solids to release as much liquid as possible.
  • Discard the solids and transfer the liquid to a serving pitcher.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining lemons.
  • Stir in the water until blended.
  • Add ice cubes or chill, stirring just before serving over ice.
