Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 cups water
- Ice cubes
- Fresh lemon slices (for garnish)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of fresh lemon juice, 1 cup of sugar, 4 cups of water, ice cubes, and fresh lemon slices for garnish.
- In a large pitcher, combine the 1 cup of fresh lemon juice and 1 cup of sugar. Stir the mixture well until the sugar is completely dissolved. This may take a minute or two, so be patient.
- Once the sugar has dissolved, slowly add the 4 cups of water to the pitcher. Stir the mixture again to ensure that everything is well combined.
- After mixing, taste the lemonade. If you prefer it sweeter, you can add more sugar, stirring until it dissolves. If it’s too sweet, you can add a little more lemon juice or water to balance the flavor.
- Fill glasses with ice cubes. Pour the freshly made lemonade over the ice, filling each glass to your desired level.
- For a decorative touch, garnish each glass with fresh lemon slices. You can place them on the rim of the glass or float them in the lemonade.
- Serve the lemonade immediately and enjoy the refreshing taste of your homemade Real Secret Chick-fil-A Lemonade!
Tips
- Always use FRESH lemon juice - bottled juice won't give you that vibrant, zesty flavor
- Dissolve sugar completely to avoid a grainy texture
- Use room temperature lemons and roll them on the counter before juicing to maximize juice extraction
- Chill your lemonade thoroughly for the most refreshing experience
- Adjust sweetness gradually - you can always add more sugar, but you can't take it away
- Use filtered water for the cleanest, purest taste
- Garnish with fresh lemon slices for that professional, Instagram-worthy presentation
