Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 ½ cups white sugar
8 lemons, halved
8 limes, halved
4 cups water, divided, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

I love how easy this recipe is to make. I just grilled some lemons and limes, added them to a pitcher of water, and let it sit overnight. The next day, I had a delicious and refreshing drink that was perfect for a hot summer day.
