Day 31: Make lemonade from scratch

What could be more refreshing than drinking lemonade on a hot day like today?

To make homemade lemonade, you'll need the following ingredients:

• 1 c. lemon juice (store bought or squeezed fresh from 4-6 lemons)
• 1 c. sugar
• 1 c. water
• 3-4 c. cold water

First, heat the sugar and water in a small saucepan; add the sugar and stir until it's completely dissolved.

Then, add the lemon juice and sugar water to a pitcher, then add water to taste. Chill before serving.
