(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Drinks

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 12 lemons, plus slices for garnish

Directions

  1. Heat the sugar and 2 cups water in a saucepan until the sugar is dissolved. Let cool completely.

  2. Juice the lemons into a pitcher. Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a separate pitcher to remove the seeds and pulps—smush it around to get every last bit of juice.

  3. Add the sugar syrup, lots of ice and 8 cups cold water to the lemon juice and stir. Garnish with lemon slices.
