1 C water (for the simple syrup)
1 C lemon juice (fresh squeezed from REAL lemons!)
3-4 C cold water (to dilute)
Make simple syrup by heating the sugar and water in a small sauce pan until the sugar is completely dissolved.
While the sugar is dissolving, use a juicer to extract the juice from 4-6 lemons, enough for 1 cup fo juice.
Add the juice and the sugar water to a pitcher. Add 3-4 cups cold water, more or less to the desired strength. Refrigerate 30-40 minutes.
Serve with ice and sliced lemons on a hot summer day!
