State Fair Lemonade

It’s so fresh with an incredible flavor! The key is muddling the lemon wedges, peels and all, to bring out the oils along with the fresh lemon juice. It’s so so good!

For each serving:
2 large lemons
4 T sugar
¼ c hot tap water
1 c cold water
Ice

Rinse lemons. Cut each lemon in half; cut each half into four wedges. Place lemon pieces in large glass measuring cup. Add sugar. Use a muddler to smash lemons. Add hot water and stir until sugar is dissolved. Add cold water. Pour through strainer into large cup of ice. Garnish with lemon wedges if drinking immediately. (Can make lemonade ahead of time. Remove lemon wedges before refrigerating lemonade as it can turn bitter.) Makes approximately 1½ cups.
