It's definitely tasty, but a little on the sweet side and not enough lemony tartness for my tastes. Second time around (and most definitely worth the 2nd try, I'll cut back on the sugar in the simple syrup and boost the lemons. I used 5 large lemons to get ~2 cups of lemon juice.

A local native has a recipe to make syrup from sugar cane (a lengthy process that involves copper kettles. However, I cannot argue with the result. So much so, I included her recipe in my first novel as the ultimate glass of lemonade. Bon chance!

This recipe is great, and makes me grateful that I have two lemon trees! It's a perfect blend of lemon tangy and sweet. My son and I made a pitcher to surprise my wife and daughter, 'cuz it's 96 here today!

It helps to have a citrus juicer for this puppy. It is really, really good, and pretty easy. My only complaint is that the simple syrup makes it a little too sweet. I prefer lemonade on the more tart side, so I cut down on the sugar, and occasionally add some dried lavender or a squeeze of some other citrus fruit (tangerines are a great addition.

Best lemonade I've ever had! A big hit with everyone. Takes about an hour to make as it took approximately 11 large lemons for me to get 2 cups of lemon juice....BUT it was well worth the time and labor.

This is the best lemonade I've ever had. It's a great balance between tart and sweet with a nice sharpness to it. I strained out the lemon zest before mixing the simple syrup with the juice and water, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. It was a huge hit with everyone. I will definitely make it again.

It's really good...but do you realize how many lemons it takes to get 2 cups of lemon juice?! And then you need lemon slices. Plan accordingly.
