How to Make Sage Lemonade
Simply a great lemonade recipe you'll want to create memories around.
Equipment
- 1 Citrus Juicer
- 1 Knife
- 1 Cutting Board
- 1 Strainer
- 1 Large Measuring Cup or Bowl
- 1 Set of Measuring Cups
- 1 Large pitcher
- 1 Muddler
Ingredients
- 1 cup Strained lemon juice
- ¾ cup Steeped sage
- ¾ cup Sugar
- 3 cups Water
Instructions
- Get the sage ready. Start with bringing two cups of water to a boil. Muddle approximately 15 - 20 fresh sage leaves and add to the boiling water. Allow the sage to steep for 5 - 6 minutes.
- Juice and strain the lemons. You need 1 cup of lemon juice. I use a juicer but you can do this by hand or any other method that gets you what you need.
- Combine lemon juice, sugar and 3/4 cup steeped sage to a pitcher. Stir until combined and sugar dissolved.
- Add three cups of water; stir until combined. Chill lemonade and serve cold.
Notes
- This recipe uses anywhere between four and eight lemons to get one cup of lemon juice.
- The hot sage water helps to dissolve the sugar.
- Want to serve your sage lemonade right away? Pour in 2 cups water and 1 cup ice instead of 3 cups water.
