Ingredients
Lemongrass Syrup
- 2 stalks Lemongrass bruised gently
- 1 cup Sugar granulated
- 2 cup Water
Lemonade
- 1/2 cup Lemon Juice freshly squeezed
- 1/2 cup Lime Juice freshly squeezed
- 1 tsp Salt optional, to taste
- 6-8 cup Water chilled
- 8-10 cup Ice Cubes

Instructions
Make the Lemongrass Syrup
- In a small saucepan, combine the lemongrass stalks (gently bruised), sugar, and 2 cups of water.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely, about 1 hour. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the lemongrass.

- Stir well to combine.
- Add ice cubes to the pitcher.
Serve
- Serve immediately in tall glasses filled with ice.
- Garnish with lemon slices and a lemongrass stalk.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Lemongrass Lemonade:
- For a stronger lemongrass flavor, use 3-4 stalks and simmer the syrup for a longer period.
- Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference. Start with less and add more to taste if needed.
- If you don't have fresh lemongrass, you can use lemongrass essential oil. Start with a few drops and add more until you reach your desired flavor (be cautious, a little goes a long way!).
- For a prettier presentation, use a beautiful pitcher and garnish generously with lemon slices and lemongrass stalks.
