For a smoother lemonade, consider using superfine sugar, which dissolves more easily. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Some lemons are more tart than others. Always use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. Bottled lemon juice often has a metallic taste. Make a large batch of the sugar syrup ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to a week. This way, you can have fresh lemonade in minutes! Try adding a splash of sparkling water or club soda for a fizzy twist.
