Serves: 4
Prep: 5

Bursting with the flavour of freshly squeezed lemon juice and with almost half the sugar of most commercial lemonades, it’s sure to hit the spot!

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup lemon juice, freshly squeezed
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1.25L soda water
  • Ice cubes

Method

  1. Step 1

    Place lemon juice and sugar in a medium saucepan over a low heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Simmer for 3 minutes to create a syrup. Cool in fridge.

  2. Step 2

    To serve, pour cold lemon syrup into a large jug over ice and top with soda water. Stir the lemonade before serving. Garnish with mint leaves.

Tips

  • This lemonade contains 14g of sugar per serve, which is almost half that of most commercial lemonades.
  • Try adding some lime juice for a twist on regular lemonade.
