Homemade Chick fil A Style Lemonade
This sweet and tart lemonade is the perfect refreshing treat for a hot summer day.
recipesbynani.comThere is something truly special about a glass of fresh lemonade when the weather warms up. This copycat recipe is a family favorite because it tastes just like the version you get at your favorite chicken restaurant, but you can make it right in your own kitchen with only three simple ingredients.
My best tip for the perfect flavor is to make sure you use fresh lemons rather than bottled juice. The difference in brightness and quality is worth the extra few minutes it takes to squeeze them by hand.
🧺 Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 7 cups cold water
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Pour the granulated sugar into a large pitcher.
- 2
Add the fresh lemon juice to the sugar.
- 3
Stir the mixture vigorously until the sugar has completely dissolved.
- 4
Pour in the cold water and stir well to combine everything.
- 5
Serve your lemonade over plenty of ice and enjoy immediately.
💡 Tips
Store any leftovers in a sealed pitcher in the refrigerator for up to three days. If you find the flavor is too strong, you can add an extra cup of water to mellow it out before serving.
