In reply to Camilla Black. Thanks, Camilla! I'm glad you loved it. I haven't tried it with mango. That would be such a refreshing twist!

I absolutely loved the recipe! Your lemonade for so fresh, cool and delicious! Have you ever tried lemonade with mango? It is so good as well – and perfect for hot summer days!

In reply to WikiJuices. If you prefer to make your simple syrup with honey, go for it. Honey definitely has more health benefits than white sugar. I've never used it to make a simple syrup, but I'm sure if you hit up Google, you can find out how it's done.

Why do you recommend using sugar? Instead of sugar you can put honey in lemonade. Will I still get the same benefits from the lemon water if I would like to add honey to my lemon water?

In reply to Terry. The recipe is really flexible, so you can just add as much sweet syrup and water as you need to achieve the taste you're looking for. :)

My lemons are quite large. When you make this what is the amount of lemon juice you use?

You’re right! Making the simple syrup was SO easy. Two questions: about how much lemonade does this recipe yield? About how many cups of lemon juice do you get from five lemons/use for this recipe?

If you poke a couple holes in each lemon and stick in the microwave for 35-45 seconds then cup your hand over the lemon and roll on the counter you get more juice out of them.

I filled the empty lemon cups with shop brought lemon sorbet and kept them in the freezer until a dessert was required…. Just right for a dinner party….!!

Sounds good, you can also add the juice of a squeezed orange to make it a little tastier and a wonderful rich golden yellow color for more fun. Also if the lemons are not great, a pinch of salt helps add pzazz to the drink. We actually just throw our sugar in at the end, and it dissolves fine, there just has to be enough liquid for the sugar to dissolve in before it reaches saturation point. If you like it really sweet the syrup would work better for it all to be dissolved. My 3 year old loves to make lemonade 🙂

In reply to diane. I think it's because you want the sugar to be fully dissolved, which you achieve by heating it in the water.

why would you just not use sugar, instead of a syrup? Is there a difference in taste?
