Notes

Expert Tips

  • To get the most juice from the lemons, let them stand at room temperature or microwave on High for a few seconds before squeezing them. Rolling the lemons on a counter while pushing down firmly to break the tissues inside will also release more juice for our lemonade recipe.
  • Tastes for sweetness of lemonade vary, so feel free to adjust the sugar to your taste. You may want to make Old-Fashioned Lemonade on the tart side and let guests add sugar if they prefer it sweeter.
