Ingredients
  

For the Lemonade Base
  • 1 cup fresh lemon juice Freshly squeezed for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup sugar Adjust based on sweetness preference.
  • 4 cups cold water To dilute the lemonade base.
  • 1 cup heavy cream For a creamy texture.
For Serving
  • Ice cubes To chill the drink.
  • Lemon slices For garnish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Juice fresh lemons until you reach 1 cup of lemon juice.
  2. In a large pitcher, combine the fresh lemon juice and sugar. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Pour in the 4 cups of cold water and mix well. Taste to adjust sweetness if necessary.
  4. Slowly stir in the heavy cream until it blends smoothly with the lemonade base.
  5. Fill glasses with ice cubes, pour the creamy lemonade over the ice, and garnish with lemon slices. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a lighter option, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or coconut cream. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. If frozen, blend with a bit of cold water to refresh the consistency.
