Fresh Lemonade Concentrate

February 28, 2009 by Alison

There’s nothing like a freshly squeezed glass of slightly tart lemonade on a hot summer afternoon. Get together with a friend to make this fresh lemon concentrate and you’ll see how easy it will be to serve some fresh squeezed lemonade to your picnic guests. It’s sure to become a summertime staple for picnics, BBQ’s and even Lemonade stands for the kids.

Recipe source:

Ingredients

2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice (About 16 Lemons)
1 ½ cups granulated sugar

Directions

In a medium sized saucepan, bring 2 cups of water and 1 ½ cups of sugar to a boil. Turn heat down to low and stir for a minute or two until the sugar is completely dissolved. Set aside to cool. Wash and then slice 16 lemons in half and, using a lemon press or electric hand juicer, squeeze lemons until you have 2 cups of lemon juice. Mix the lemon juice together with the simple syrup and transfer to freezer safe containers. Tupperware makes a set of tumblers called a “Tumbler Bouquet” with lids that work perfectly. http://order.tupperware.com/coe/app/home

About Alison Javens

It all began when I was a child cooking with my dad, the kitchen a magnet for cooking and camaraderie, a refuge from adolescence. I spent countless hours chopping, sautéing and simmering my way through childhood. And now, with three kids of my own, I’m still chopping, but this time through their childhood and often with friends.
