Old Fashioned Lemonade Recipe

To Make the Syrup:

Rind and juice of 3 lemons

3 cups sugar

2 Tablespoons of Citric Acid

1.2 litres of boiling water

Peel the lemon rind off the lemons and whizz in the food processor with the sugar. (If you have no food processor, grate the lemon rind off and mix together instead).

Dissolve the sugar/rind mixture and citric acid in the Boiling Water.
Stir in lemon juice.

This makes 1.5 litres of concentrate which, once cooled, can be bottled and kept. Dilute with soda water for a fizzy lemonade: 1 part concentrate to 3 parts water (or dilute still further for a lighter drink).

Made up this way you will have 6 litres of deliciously tangy Old Fashioned Lemonade.

Serve with ice cubes and lemon slices. Mmmmm! A yummy and healthy fizzy drink for parties or anytime.
