Lemonade remade

Lemonade remade

OLD-FASHIONED LEMONADE
Serves 6
1 cup water
1 cup sugar
Juice from 6 lemons
4 more cups cold water
Combine sugar and one cup of water in a saucepan to make simple syrup. Bring it to a boil, stirring often, until sugar dissolves thoroughly. Let cool and refrigerate. Add juice from 6 lemons to simple syrup and mix well. Stir in remaining water. Serve over ice.

GINGERADE
Add to the classic recipe:
1 3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1/4 cup honey
Splash of ginger ale
Serve over crushed ginger and garnish with sliced ginger or crystallized ginger on top of the ice.

One tool, two drinks
Can’t decide between lemonade or limeade? One tool helps you make both. This handy two-in-one juicer fits both fruits for maximum juice extraction. Tip: To pull out even more liquid, roll your room-temperature fruit on the countertop with your palm before juicing. Two-in-One Citrus Juicer ($20) from Williams-Sonoma.
