This hand shaken State Fair Lemonade is a sweet and sour festival classic made at home. It uses the entire lemon for optimal flavor, there is no peeling required, and it is done in 5 minutes (nothing complicated).
7 Prepare your lemons by washing with cool water and cleaning them with stiff bristled brush. Dry with a towel.
1 Roll the lemon on the counter a few times using firm pressure. Then cut it in half and then in fours so you have 8 pieces of lemon.
3 In each jar, add 4 lemon pieces and ¼ cup of sugar.
6 Muddle the lemon and sugar together until the lemons are broken down and the lemon juice is fully released.
5 Fill each jar with ice and then top with water.
4 Tightly screw lid on the jars and shake thoroughly. Garnish with a lemon wedge.
