Units
Scale
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 6 large lemons)
- 1/2 cup honey
- 9 cups water
- 1/2 teaspoon rosewater*
- *Most Indian and Middle Eastern speciality shops sell Rosewater or look in the imported food section at your grocery store.
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat warm the honey with 1 cup of the water, stirring until the honey dissolves. You won’t need to bring it to a boil, just hot enough to melt the honey.
- Combine the lemon juice with the remaining 8 cups of water in a large pitcher. Add the honey mixture and rosewater and stir to combine.
- Serve chilled over ice. Garnish with slices of lemon or strawberry, fresh lemon balm or mint, whatever tickles your fancy.
