The ingredients for Homemade lemon/limeade are:

Zest of 2-3 lemons
Zest of 3-4 limes
3 cups water
2.25 cups sugar (or to taste)
3 cups lemon and lime juice, fresh-squeezed or bottled or a combination of the two

Here is how you make Homemade lemon/limeade:

Put zest, water, and sugar into a saucepan. Heat until the syrup is clear, and then for a minute or so more. Do not bring to a full boil, but a simmer is fine.Put juice into a heat-safe bowl that can hold all the liquid in the recipe (approximately eight cups.) Pour the cooked syrup through a wire-mesh strainer into the juice. Stir. Fill 2 cup mason jars with the syrup and refrigerate or freeze. To serve, add one 2-cup jar to a 2-litre jug and fill up with water and ice. Adjust water to taste.Variants: a hint of grenadine syrup is excellent in this, and you can make it fizzy by replacing the water in the jug with club soda. At approximately 60 calories per cup (prepared) it's a lighter and healthier drink than any soda.Number of Servings: 32Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user VELVETPAGE1.
