Langkah-langkah

Depends on lemons, the amount of juice varies. You will need about 8-10 lemons to get 2 cups of lemon juice.
Combine 2 cups sugar and 2 cups water in a saucepan and bringing to a simmer. Stir until sugar is dissolved and then let cool. You can keep this simple syrup for up to a month.
Zest 2 lemons and add to the 2-cup liquid measuring cup. Cut lemons in half.
Squeeze 8-10 lemons till you get 2 cups of lemon juice.
If you have an electric lemon squeezer, it is helpful. Now in your measuring cup, you should have 2 cups of lemon juice and zest from 2 lemons.
In a large pitcher, add zest from 2 lemons, pour 2 cups lemon juice, and 3 cups water.
Gradually add the simple syrup and taste to reach the desired sweetness. I usually add 1 to 1 ¼ cup simple syrup depends on the lemons I use.
Make Classic Lemonade (See above).
In a glass cup, combine ½ cup mint, sprinkle sugar, and a lemon wheel.
Using a muddler or wooden spoon, gently muddle the mint leaves. Transfer the mint leaves to the lemonade pitcher and stir well.
Combine 2 cups sugar, 2 cups water, and ½ cup thyme in a saucepan and bringing to a simmer. Stir until sugar is dissolved and then let cool.
In a large pitcher, add zest from 2 lemons, pour 2 cups lemon juice, and 3 cups water.
Gradually add the thyme-infused simple syrup and thymes and taste to reach the desired sweetness. I usually add 1 cup to 1 ¼ cup simple syrup depends on the lemons I use.
Chill the lemonade for at least 1 hour.
In a serving pitcher, add ice and lemon slices.
For mint/thyme lemonade, use more mint/thyme for decoration.
Keep the leftover lemonade (do not add ice!) in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Before storing, discard the mint leaves from ythe mint lemonade as they turn brown.
