Equipment

  • 1 saucepan small
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 pitcher 1/2 gallon

Ingredients

  • 6 cups filtered water
  • ¾ cup raw honey local, if possible
  • 2 cups lemon juice freshly squeezed; about 2½ to 3 pounds of lemons

Instructions

  • Add one cup of the filtered water and honey to a small saucepan. Heat over low heat, while whisking, until the honey is fully dissolved.
  • Pour the honey water into a half-gallon pitcher along with the remaing 5 cups of water.
  • Juice enough lemons to make 2 cups of freshly squeezed lemon juice. Pour the lemon juice into the pitcher with the honey water and whisk well to combine.
  • Transfer the pitcher to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours. Pour over ice and enjoy!

Notes

To infuse more sweet and sour lemony flavor, slice one of the lemons into thin wheels and add them to the pitcher.
