Did you know it is National Lemonade Day? Who knew am I right?

Refreshing Lemonade Recipe!
Ingredients
1 ¾ cups white sugar
1 cup water
9 medium lemons, or more as needed
7 cups ice-cold water
ice as needed
Directions
Combine sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan. Stir to dissolve sugar while the mixture comes to a boil. Set aside to cool slightly.
Next, roll lemons around on your counter to soften. Cut in half crosswise, and squeeze into a liquid measuring cup. Add pulp to the juice, but discard any seeds. Continue juicing until you have 1 1/2 cups of fresh juice and pulp.
Pour 7 cups of ice-cold water into a pitcher. Stir in lemon juice and pulp, then add simple syrup to taste. Add ice.
Enjoy!
