Watermelon Lemonade
What you need:
For Sugar Syrup:
- 2 cups water
- 2 cups sugar
For Lemonade:
- 2 cups water
- 2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice (About 8 lemons)
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 4 cups ice cubes
- 2 cups diced watermelon
- Mixed diced fruit of your choice (such as apples, pears or strawberries)
- 1 orange, sliced into rounds
- 1 lemon, sliced into rounds
- 1 lime, sliced into rounds
Recipe:
To make sugar syrup: Combine the water and sugar in a medium saucepan. Turn the heat to medium-high and boil for 10 minutes. If you are planning to make the lemonade immediately, place 2 cups of the sugar water in the freezer or refrigerator while you do the rest of the prep. (The recipe makes about 2 cups syrup. When stored in a tightly sealed glass jar, sugar syrup keeps indefinitely in the refrigerator).
To make the lemonade: Mix 2 cups of sugar syrup, watermelon, lemon juice, and lime juice in a big bowl or pitcher. Add the ice cubes, diced watermelon and other fruit. Add the orange, lemon, and lime rounds. Stir well and chill until icy cold.
