Lemonade is man-made from lemon juice, water and sugar. It's been home-made for centuries, in some areas with the addition of herbs, spices and various other flavour and colour enhancing substances.

Best-known today is commercially manufactured lemonade made with carbonated (fizzy) water, which is either clear, coloured or cloudy, frequently very sweet, and probably contains various artificial additives, added to change the flavour and colour.

Lemonade is simply made at home by heating a cup each of sugar and water until the sugar has completely dissolved, then pour into a jug (pitcher) with a cup of lemon juice (about six lemons, juiced) and four cups of cold water. Add more lemon juice if it's too sweet, and top with ice and lemon or lime slices before serving.

You can experiment with other flavours and colours. For pink lemonade, add one cup of cranberry juice (buy a brand which is as pure as possible).
