Method

1

Finely grate the zest of 3 lemons, making sure to take only the yellow outer layer.

2

Combine the zest with sugar and rub them together with your hands for 1–2 minutes until the sugar turns yellow and becomes intensely aromatic.

3

Juice all the lemons, strain the juice, pour it into the sugar-zest mixture, and stir until completely dissolved.

4

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.

5

Before serving, strain through a fine-mesh sieve and dilute with cold water—about 1 part concentrate to 4 parts water. Taste and adjust to your liking, then add ice if desired.
