The Best Homemade Lemonade (Sugar-Zest Trick)
130 min4 servings
Most homemade lemonade tastes flat because it only uses the juice. The real flavor lives in the peel: rub lemon zest into the sugar until it turns yellow and fragrant, add the juice of the same lemons, chill it into a syrup, then dilute with cold water. Same lemons, same sugar, same water — a single step apart, and far more lemon.
