Ingredients
2 tbsp caster sugar
30 ml boiling water
2 oranges, cut in half
2 lemons, cut in half
1 ltr cold water
Method
Put the sugar into a cup or a small jug. Boil some water in a kettle and take care pouring 30ml over the sugar. Carefully stir to help the sugar dissolve. Leave it to sit while you squeeze your fruit.
When you are squeezing oranges and lemons press them onto the squeezer and turn the fruit in both directions. After a few moments the juice should start to drip out. An adult can help you press them down harder if this is a bit difficult.
Pour all the juice into a big jug. Add 1 litre of cold water and then stir in your sugar syrup. The lemonade is ready to drink.
