Ingredients Needed For Fresh Limeade:
Water
Sugar
Fresh squeezed lime juice
Ice cold water when serving
Instructions For Fresh Limeade:
Juice the limes: roll the limes under the palm of your hand, firmly on the kitchen counter, to break up the pulp inside. Cut the limes in half and juice the limes. (approximately 2 tablespoons of juice from each lime)
In a sauce pan, combine 2 cups of water, 2 cups of sugar, and I cup freshly squeezed lime juice. Bring lime mixture to a boil to dissolve the sugar.
Remove this simple lime syrup from the heat and allow time to cool. This will make about 3 1/2 cups.
Refrigerate to chill.
When ready to serve, use half of this simple lime syrup and very cold water. Mix this half and half-half water and half simple syrup. So, one cup of the lime simple syrup and one cup of very cold water. Serve over ice. If this is too tart, add a little more sugar to your glass and stir.
Serve with slices of lime if desired. Enjoy!
