I made this lemonade for a brunch today and it was a huge hit! I tripled the recipe and followed your directions exactly. I wouldn't change a thing. Thanks for posting, will definitely make it again!

I prepared this for a cookout with friends, and it was a hit. Of course, we had to add a little vodka to our glasses of this crisp, cool, and refreshing lemonade. The club soda is a nice twist on a traditional summer cooler.
