🍋 State Fair-Style Fresh Lemonade

🧾 Ingredients (per serving):

• 1 large lemon

• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (adjust to taste)

• 1 1/2 cups cold water

• Ice cubes

• Optional: lemon slices for garnish

👨‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Wash & Roll the Lemon:
   Roll the lemon firmly on the counter to release the juices inside.

2. Cut & Squeeze:
   Cut the lemon in half and squeeze all the juice into a glass. Remove any seeds.
   (Optional: Drop one squeezed lemon half into the glass for extra flavor.)

3. Add Sugar:
   Add the sugar directly to the lemon juice. Stir or muddle well until mostly dissolved.
   (For extra fair-style texture, you can muddle the lemon with the sugar for a more rustic flavor!)

4. Add Water & Ice:
   Pour in the cold water and stir until everything is well combined. Add plenty of ice.

5. Taste & Adjust:
   Taste and add more sugar or lemon juice as needed.

6. Serve Cold & Enjoy:
   Garnish with a lemon slice or a paper straw for that real fair vibe!
