For a less sweet lemonade, reduce the amount of sugar. For a tarter flavor, increase the amount of lemon juice. Try adding a few mint leaves or a slice of cucumber for a refreshing twist. Use filtered water for the best taste.
Quench your thirst with this single-serving Mason Jar Lemonade, a perfectly balanced blend of tangy lemon and subtle sweetness. Ideal for a refreshing treat on a hot summer day!
Roll the lemon on a flat surface to release its juices. Cut it in half and squeeze the juice and pulp into a mason jar. Pour 12 ounces of cold water into the jar. (2 minutes)
In a small saucepan, stir together the sugar and the remaining 2 ounces of cold water over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved, creating a simple syrup. (5 minutes)
Pour the sugar syrup and ice cubes into the mason jar. Stir well to combine all ingredients. Adjust sweetness or tartness to your preference by adding more sugar or lemon juice, if desired. (2 minutes)
