Pink Lemonade





I got a craving for pink lemonade. What do I do when I have a craving? I create!!! Here it is.

2 3/4 Cups sugar
2 3/4 Cups fresh squeezed lemon juice. Grenadine is sweet so we like a little more lemon juice than usual. (We usually use 2 1/2 cups lemon juice.)
 2 Tbl. grenadine (you can add more if you like. I think 2s tablespoon is perfect. But if you love grenadine add another. It would be easy for the grenadine to overpower the wonderful lemon flavor so don't be heavy handed. Little at a time.)
   Enjoy.

Put sugar in one gallon container and add 1 cup very hot water and stir to dissolve sugar. Add lemon juice and stir. Add enough water to make a gallon of lemonade and then the grenadine. Now if this is too strong you can add just a bit more water. Everyone is different in how strong they like their lemonade. More sugar, less sugar, more lemon, less etc..... Stir and enjoy.
