Ingredients




The juice of 12 lemons
6 tablespoons sugar
1 glass water
Garnish: lemon slices or mint leaves (optional)

Preparation

1 Add the sugar and water to a saucepan over medium heat. 2 Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. 3 Remove from the heat and allow to cool. 4 Add the lemon juice, and any additional flavouring you’d like (orange flower water, etc…), and stir well before transferring to a jug or bottle, and store in the fridge. 5 To serve, combine about ¼ lemon syrup and ¾ cold water (I like mine with sparkling water). Add ice cubes and garnish each glass lemon slices and/or mint leaves.
