End Of Summer Lemonade

1 - 1  1/2 c. fresh lemon juice 4 large lemons (adjust amount needed). 1/2 - 1 c. prepared simple syrup (adjusted amount needed) 4  c. cold water Cut lemons in half.  Put halved lemon in microwave for 10 sec. You can roll lemons on the kitchen counter with your hands for a few seconds too. Squeeze lemon juice into a measuring cup.    I’ve used an electric citrus juicer, but you can squeeze juice through sieve with your hands or a manual citrus squeezer.  Pour lemon juice through a sieve  into a pitcher. Add 1 c. of the simple syrup and water.   Mix well. You can can add more simple syrup if desired.  Serves 6 - 8.
