lemonade
2 cups Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
6 cups Water
2 cups Granulated Sugar
2 cups 150 proof netural
1: Put the water and sugar in a small pot, heat over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and the water starts to clear. It does not need to boil. Stir occasionally so you do not burn the sugar. Now let it cool.
2: Add the Lemon Juice and the Everclear to your syrup, stir it all together and bottle it. Like all other liqueurs it mellows with age, a few hours, a few days, a few weeks . . . it’s up to you!
This recipe yields about 3 quarts.
This recipe is a little tart, but it’s what I prefer. If it’s too sour for you add a little sugar, a tablespoon at a time until you get the taste you want. This is the Joy of Making Your Own, you customize it to your taste.
enjoy on a hot lazy summer day!
