Orange lemonade

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Drinks
The classic lemonade's little sister, orangeade. While lemon provides acidity, orange brings body and sweetness to the drink. This recipe is a play on ratios: how to balance the milder acids of orange with a little lemon to get not a diluted fruit juice, but a real refresher. The secret is sugar syrup, which makes the sip silky.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Juicer
  • Jug
  • Long-handled spoon

Instructions

1 ✓

Make quick syrup: dissolve the sugar in 60ml hot water until completely dissolved and clear. Let cool slightly.

Tip: This step ensures the drink is not gritty.
2 ✓

In the jug, mix the orange juice, lemon juice, and sugar syrup.

Tip: Lemon juice is essential because orange alone is not acidic enough for a refresher.
3 ✓

Top up with cold water or soda.

Tip: Taste it! Oranges vary in sweetness, you might need more water or lemon.
4 ✓

Fill the jug with ice and toss in the mint sprigs.

Tip: Always add ice at the end so the drink doesn't splash out.
5 ✓

Serve in glasses, garnish with an orange slice each.

Tip: Cheers!

Recipe FAQ

Why is syrup better than granulated sugar?
In cold water, granulated sugar dissolves very slowly and with difficulty, often crunching under your teeth at the bottom. Syrup mixes instantly.
Can I use soda water?
Yes! Carbonation adds extra freshness and highlights the aromas.
