I made this tonight, and looking at other lemonade recipes, saw that more sugar was added. So I doubled the sugar making it 1 1/2 cups of sugar. I liked it better when it was sweeter, but you would have to adjust to the sweetness you like. It is really good.
 
Oh, this is my favorite summer time drink. I make it all the time! I usually do throw some lemons sliced with the Ultimate Mandoline in there as well as some strawberries sliced with the egg slicer. YUMMY!

Here I am trying to pack light for these out of state shows I have this weekend, and you just added the family sized quick stir to my bags...hehehe.
