I used to use my great grandmothers recipe when i was a kid but alas it has been lost over the years :(

Answer 1

Soda water

Answer 2

Answer 3

well this is what i would use to make a lemomade that you are looking for.

lemonade

juice from 3 lemons

3 cups of boiling water

quarter of a cup of sugar

mix then put in fridge till cooled to your likeing.

or you can make a hot soothing lemon drink by putting all the indgrediants as listed above, and putting them in a saucepan and mkixing till all mixed through, don't let it boil though. just hot enough.

i hope you liked my recipe(heaps of other ppl probably alredi said it but hoo cares.) it's simple but taste  good. :)  

Answer 4

Here's mine:

I use the same amount of lemon juice or lime juice (fresh) and sugar and then six times more water. Like:

1 cup lemon juice

1 cup sugar

6 cups water

I put a few lemon or lime halves (after I squeeze them) in the pitcher for extra flavor.

It's delicious!

Answer 5

All those ingredients sound about right, but chances are you might need to do some boiling as well before cooling it all down?

Also, adding extra 'secret ingredients' to your lemonade can really boost the taste and even help create 'themed' lemonade. For instance, adding lime can make some wonderful 'tropical themed' lemonade. Also, adding a bit of ginger can make 'Asian themed lemonade' (might be a fitting idea considering the Olympics) as can be seen through this recipe:

In any case, have fun experimenting!

  

Answer 6

Ooh yes, it's lovely!!!! Try this one:

INGREDIENTS

6 lemons

200 g white sugar

1420 ml cold water

DIRECTIONS

Juice the lemons to make 1 cup of juice. To make your labor easier, FIRMLY roll the lemons between your hand and counter top before cutting in half and juicing.

In a gallon pitcher combine 1 cup lemon juice, 1 cup sugar, and 6 cups cold water. Stir. Adjust water to taste. Chill and serve over ice.
