Homemade Lemonade

I forgot to take a picture of this. Imagine a nice cold glass of lemonade. There is nothing better in the summer. I have never made homemade before but decided to go all out for our barbeque this weekend. I used this recipe from The Sweetest Kitchen.

Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup sugar
Zest of 3 lemons
2 cups boiling water
4 cups cold water
1 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice (this took me about 8-9 lemons)

Directions:
Pour sugar and lemon zest into a large pitcher. Add boiling water and stir to dissolve sugar. Add cold water and lemon juice and stir to combine. Strain out lemon zest before serving. Serve chilled or with ice.
