How to cook deliciously - Blended Whole Lemon Lemonade

1. Stage

Prep the lemons and add to blender: Wash the lemons to remove any waxy coating. Trim the hard stem end; cut the lemons into quarters and remove the seeds. Cut the quarters into large chunks. Add to blender. If your lemon has thicker skin, or if the blossom end is thick, trim it to reduce bitterness.

2. Stage

Add water and sugar and blend: Add the sugar and 3 cups water to the carafe of a blender. Blend on high until smooth, about 30 seconds.

3. Stage

Strain lemonade: Strain the lemonade over a pitcher using a fine-mesh sieve. Use a silicone spatula to press the pulp against the strainer and wring out the remaining juice. You could discard the pulp, if you’d like.

4. Stage

Mix in remaining water and serve: Add the remaining 1 cup of water and stir to combine. Serve lemonade over ice.
