Tips
- Use fresh lemons; not store-bought lemon juice or concentrated lemon juice.
- Buy more lemons than you think you'll need. For this recipe you'll need about 2 ½ to 3 lemons.
- To get the most juice out of lemons, roll them back and forth on your cutting board applying pressure. You can also try heating them in the microwave for 10 seconds.
- Start with less vanilla simple syrup to see how you like it.
- Let the lemonade sit in the fridge before serving so the flavors can meld together.
- Freeze some of the lemonade to make ice cubes. That way the ice doesn't dilute the lemonade.
