Ingredients
Start here, then move straight into the method.
- 1 kilo sour lemons
- 1 kilo oranges
- 2 1/2 cups sugar, or to taste
- 2 liters cold water, or 8 cups
- 1 sprig fresh mint or 1 tablespoon orange blossom water
Method
Follow the cooking sequence without leaving the page.
- Wash the lemons and oranges well, then cut each fruit into 4 pieces including the peel
- Place them in a bowl, sprinkle the sugar over them, and leave them to soak in the refrigerator for about half an hour
- After the time has passed, squeeze them by hand, then add half the amount of water and continue squeezing; then remove the peels after they have been fully squeezed and discard them
- Add the second liter of water and stir to dissolve the sugar
- Remove the seeds with a sieve to keep the pulp; you can strain the lemonade, but this method removes the pulp — traditionally the pulp is left in the lemonade
- Finally add a little orange blossom water or a sprig of mint or mint leaves, and leave the lemonade in a jug in the refrigerator to serve cold
