Scale
For the Simple Syrup:
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup water
For the Lemonade:
- 2 cups lemon juice
- 4 cups ice
- 1 cup mixed berries
Instructions
- Prepare Simple Syrup: In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat and stir until all sugar has dissolved.
- Mix Lemonade: Let the simple syrup come to room temperature, then pour into a pitcher. Add the lemon juice and berries and mix. (Note: You want your lemonade to be pretty strong so that when you add ice, it isn’t too diluted)
