This is delicious. It takes very little time to make and it is really worth it. Most lemonades are very sweet and you can't usually taste the lemony flavor, but this is all lemon!!!!!

BEST LEMONADE

This is from one of my first Good House Keeping cookbooks. You must use a *zester* in order to avoid getting any of that bitter rind, and when you zest the lemons, zest them onto some sugar from the recipe (the sugar will 'catch' all of the oils). I also advise you from personal experience to use only the best skinned lemons for the best flavor.
