Old-Fashioned Lemonade
This sweet-tart lemonade is a traditional part of my Memorial Day and Fourth of July menus. Folks can't get enough of the fresh-squeezed flavor. —Tammi Simpson, Greensburg, Kentucky

This lemonade is PERFECT! Thanks for sharing!
This is a good lemonade recipe. I made with my nieces. They helped me juice the lemons and strain the pulp out.
A fairly sweet lemonade, with a nice amount of lemon oil from the peel.
Not too tart, not too sweet. Highly recommended
This is the perfect drink to enjoy on the patio in summertime. This recipe tastes just like my mom's lemonade growing up. I did reduce the sugar to one cup and only used 6 lemons, since this is all I had on hand. It was still sweet, but in my opinion, that's how old-fashioned lemonade is supposed to taste!
Great but needed 8 lemons
Forget the powdered stuff! Easy to make and delicious. What summer is all about!
