Lemonade for a Crowd (Chick-fli-a recipe)

2 quarts Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice
8 quarts Water
7 cups sugar

If you are in a hurry, you can just mix together the ingredients and serve cold.

The disadvantage to this is that ultimately the sugar will fall to the bottom of the drink and need re-stirring, depending on how quickly you plan on drinking it.

If you want to avoid this problem, you can boil some of the water with the sugar for 5 minutes, stirring constantly --you will need to wait for this mixture to cool completely before mixing the ingredients together.

NOTE: if you are using ice, you may want to add it to the individual glasses, so as not to water down your pitcher/punch bowl as the ice melts.

You can also make lemonade for a smaller crowd, by decreasing the recipe. Remember 1 quart=4 cups. Here is an example of a reduced recipe, for those of you who are mathematically challenged, like I am.

2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice
8 cups water
1 3/4 cups sugar

ENJOY!
