Summer doesn't officially begin for another month, but we all know it's here already. The days are getting warmer (if not hotter, like today in the Boston area) and it's Memorial Day weekend, which is the real start of summer for most people.
So how about some lemonade? Like Kat Kinsman, most of the people I knew growing up used packaged mixes when making lemonade, but she gives a good recipe for real lemonade over at AOL Food. The full recipe after the jump.
Lemonade
1 quart freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 – 2 ½ dozen lemons)
1 - 2 cups simple syrup
1 - 2 cups cold water
Stir the lemon juice and 1 cup each of the water and simple syrup
into a large pitcher. Sample, and continue to stir in additional
water and syrup to taste.
That's the recipe, but make sure you also go to the link above to read Kat's great tips and tricks and also some ideas for add-ins.
