easy peasy lemon squeezy // small batch lemonade

I've really been enjoying homemade lemonade lately.  I think the craving is part pregnancy part summer.  Regardless, I have an easy and inexpensive recipe for you to try that is toddler approved!

the juice from 3 lemons
1 cup sugar
water

Add 1 cup sugar and 2 cups water to a small saucepan.  Heat the sugar and water over medium heat (stirring occasionally)  just until the sugar dissolves.  This is called a simple syrup.  While you're waiting for the sugar to dissolve juice your lemons.  Pour the lemon juice to a 2-quart pitcher.  Once the sugar dissolves, add the simple syrup to the pitcher.  Then, fill your pitcher to the top with water.  Chill.  Enjoy!  :)

P.S. I know there is nothing fancy about this recipe... it's the little things!
