I got this recipe from my cyber friend Ginger in St. Thomas and I always have some in the refrigerator. It is my favorite lemonade recipe!


BACK PORCH LEMONADE

1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups fresh lemon juice
1 TBL lemon zest, grated fine (yellow part only)
Lemon slices & fresh mint leaves for garnish

Combine the sugar & 1 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat & bring to a boil. Reduce the heat & simmer 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat & cool the syrup completely. Combine the syrup with the lemon juice & zest; add 8 cups of cold water. Garnish & serve over ice. Makes about 2-1/2 qts.
