This "Punch" has many names, but whatever you decide to call it, it tastes great! It is very light and refreshing! Not so overwhelming as Lemonade or Punch, in fact, The first name that I tried it under was Japanese Lemon Water or something like that. Don't get me wrong though! This isn't some watered down lemon mediocrity! This drink is elegant and perfect! I've even made it for my sister's wedding and whenever I make it for any occasion, everyone always loves it and it is so incredibly easy to make! I believe you can even freeze the syrup. So sit back and sip some light, sweet, lemony goodness!
5 quarts water
3 C. Sugar
1 Tbls. Lemon Extract
1 Tbls. Citric Acid
Now from here you can go 1 of 2 ways. You can mix all together and then serve, but I usually make a syrup: heat 4 cups water with sugar until sugar dissolves then add extract and citric acid. Keep in container. When ready to serve mix with water and ice (careful not to dilute it!) and garnish with sliced Citrus fruit (limes, lemons, oranges you could even add other fruits like strawberries etc.). If you feel you want more flavor add equal parts acid and extract.
