Limonada

5.0

(1)

Cooks' Note:

Dilute the leftover Limonada with a little sparkling water for a refreshing limeade while you are preparing for your party.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 2 2/3 cups

Ingredients

1 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups water

Preparation

  1. In a pitcher, stir the lime juice with the sugar and 1 1/2 cups water until the sugar has dissolved. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. Fresh is best, but I think Limonada still tastes good after a couple of days in the refrigerator.
