Summer's not over!

Ok, so I was on hiatus here all summer. But that doesn't mean we didn't make some great summer recipes. Try this easy and refreshing lemonade! Nothing beats the real thing!

Lemonade
Recipe from Paula Deen, Food Network

• 2 cups sugar


• 1 cup hot water


• 2 cups fresh lemon juice


• 1 gallon cold water


• 1 lemon, sliced

In a 1-gallon container, place sugar & hot water, and stir until sugar dissolves (can do this step in a saucepan over low heat instead). Add lemon juice and colder water to render 1 gallon. Stir until well mixed. Serve over ice with lemon slices.
