    Good, but too watered down with 1 gallon of water (which is why 4 stars instead of 5. We reduced water to 2 Qts (by half in order to taste the lemon and sweetness to my family's liking. Definitely make the simple syrup over stove, cool then add - makes a big difference in the mouth feel.

    Yumm! We made this yesterday after a hot day of gardening, it is so refreshing and perfect. Made the simple syrup first and poured it into the jug along with the lemon juice, water and a few ice cubes. Reminds me of the lemonade my mom used to make for us as a child. Love you Paula! :
