Best Lemonade Ever!

With summer coming to a close, I'm clinging to warm-weather treats like lemonade. It's one of my absolute favorites and there's nothing better than homemade (plus it's so easy and fun to do with kids!).

Here's what you'll need:
1 3/4 cup white sugar
1 1/2 cup lemon juice
8 cups water

How to do it:

1. In a small saucepan, combine sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to boil and stir to dissolve sugar. Allow to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until chilled.
2. Remove seeds from lemon juice, but leave pulp. In pitcher, stir together chilled syrup, lemon juice and remaining 7 cups water.
