Ingredients :
2-3 fresh lemons
Sugar (to taste)
Water
1. Cut the lemons in half and squeeze out the juice. Save this for Step 3.
2. Drop the "empty" lemon rinds into your pitcher. Add sugar, cover and shake vigorously. This is the secret to this recipe! We want the sharp sugar crystals to abrade the lemon peel. After a minute (or so) of shaking, you should smell lemons ...
3. Add the reserved lemon juice and water. Mix and enjoy!
Lagniappe : Add a dash of salt for a taste you'll be craving hours later.
Note : Don't leave the lemon peels in the jar for long (ie more than an hour), or the Perfect Lemonade will get bitter.
