It has been unbearable here with the muggy sticky heat we’ve been dealing with and I have been craving me some sweet lemonade like crazy! Well..I’ve finally perfected the recipe and am going to share it with you all!
Have you ever had lemonade from the Grand Lux Cafe? They have the BEST lemonade and I think I’ve come close
Grand Luxish Lemonade:
Ingredients:
1 1/2-1 3/4 sugar (depending on how sweet you like it)
8 cups water
1 1/2 cups fresh lemon juice (about 7-8 lemons)
Get Started:
Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a saucepan to make the syrup. Bring to a boil and stir it up to dissolve the sugar. Allow it to cool down, cover and chill syrup in fridge for a couple hours if you have the time..if you can’t wait..stick it in the freezer for a short time to speed up the chill!
Stir together in a pitcher the chilled syrup, lemon juice and remaining 7 cups of water. Taste test..add more water if needed, but I love it as is!
That’s my sweetie enjoying the lemonade by the poolI edited the pics using Andie’s ACR Presets: On the Road Again! Specifically the Pennsylvania Ave Preset it really made these ordinary snapshots look pretty cool!
Enjoy the lemonade and pick up these presets! They rock!
