What are we making today?
The Tastiest Lemonade in the World
Most lemonade recipes are for a single glass — that’s a lot of work for... one sip. But today? We’re making real lemonade syrup from fresh lemons, so every time you crave lemonade — just pour, mix, and drink! 🍋✨ This is a fun recipe for everyone, at any age, and it’s great to make together with parents.
Once it’s ready, you can enjoy cold, tasty lemonade at home or even set up a lemonade stand to sell to neighbors and friends. For a big pitcher of lemonade, you’ll need about 5 large lemons (about 1 kg), but we recommend making syrup from 10 lemons — that way you’ll have a fridge full of syrup, and anytime you want, you can easily make a glass or a fresh pitcher. Sure, it’s a bit more squeezing — but when you make a big batch, you can drink whenever you like! 🍋

Steps
Squeeze the Lemons
Squeeze all the lemons using a juicer or by hand over a strainer. If it’s hard, ask someone in the family for help.
Measure Juice and Sugar
For each cup of juice, add three-quarters of a cup of sugar. Measure and add to the pot.
Make Sugar Syrup
Ask an adult to help – heat all the juice and sugar in a small pot, stirring well until the sugar dissolves. When you see no sugar lumps, turn off the heat and let it cool for a few minutes.
Pour Syrup into Glass Bottle
Set the syrup aside to cool. You can put a few mint leaves inside for a few minutes. After it cools, remove the mint leaves and pour into a glass bottle.
Serve and Enjoy
Add a little syrup to a glass, pour in cold water, stir, and... the lemonade is ready!
Lemonade Stand
Now all that’s left is to open a lemonade stand, sell to neighbors and friends, find a serious investor, hire employees, open an office with a lemon logo on the door, and become the world’s biggest lemonade empire.
