“That’s a lot of sugar” LADY YOURE FIRED

[@shaggydude1226]

Only if she knew how actually little sugar that is lmao

[@jinngeechia9715]

Chef John of Food Wishes just released a video on how to make it. Different process but it is the peel that makes the difference.

[@edalopo]

Chef John snap 👌 😋 thats the lazy way to make 🍋 lemonade anyone can do this in the matter of seconds

[@ernestoh69]

Lazy I think not the best way to make lemonade.

[@mattrost2574]

I've made Chef John's recipe. It's really good.

[@russellericricks6081]

Yes Jin Ngee Chia, that's it! We've followed Chef John's recipe and it is THE BEST lemonade ever!

[@jamiehogg8989]

Been watching him forever. He has the best recipe!!! Legend

[@kevinsmalley4583]

Has anybody tried Chef Johns recipe ?

[@yolanda.martinez]

I made it this week. It's really good. The lemon peel in the simple syrup mix is what gives it a boost.

[@morganccosner9891]

I made it a couple weeks ago. Very good! Can be watered down to the sweetness you like. I even added basil to mine and it came out amazing.

[@jordesign]

Just made it today. Really good. Very intense flavor. You can add water to each glass to lean it out a bit, and stretch it out to make more.. Add a mint sprig... Very good!!!

[@charlesoliver1570]

Yup, made it today with one of my little girls. She loved helping and it was very easy. I peeled the lemons the night before and when we woke up I had her scrape the peels and sugar into the water. She got all the glasses out and chopped up a lemon to garnish the glasses. We both love it and we both wanted to add 1:1 water because we felt it was a little too tart and sweet. Overall it’s an awesome recipe and the only great way to make lemonade.

[@davidf3347]

Made it last week and it turned out very well, even with average quality lemons. Was careful to get as little white part as possible when peeling. Added some chopped mint, I'd also reduce the sugar next time and maybe add more lemon juice for my taste.

Sugar water with a hint of lemon

[@mohkamaltaha]

“We’ll be right back” a very long awkward look 😀

[@gordongiobanni7543]

Best part of the video 😆

[@BlessedToBeSaved333]

Seems really laborious to muddle each glass one at a time. Definitely have to be passionate about it .

[@o1324]

that is super cool ...

[@jordesign]

You know when the owner handed her finished drink to the employee, he tossed it in the trash...

[@randydaugherty1014]

How much sugar do u use

[@Sin.Atonement]

For my 24 ounce cup I used 1/4 cup sugar

There's an even better way, othef than this video to make REAL State Fair Lemonade!

The sugar wont disolve in cold water even in a shaker.

[@vlaj1985]

But how much sugar is it

[@odinsmom45]

It looks like a 1/4 Cup scoop or 3 Tablespoons

[@georgiaboy8000]

Enough to make you a full blown diabetic 🤣.

[@dpd4life]

1/4 cup of sugar

[@williamwilson5521]

looks like they use 1/4 cup scoop but you can always adjust amount to taste

[@jayb.8460]

I thought they would be using a hand press at least...

[@bananadog5813]

making it a glass at a time is pretty dumb lol. Definitely going to be an inconsistent product. A lot of extra effort too.

[@TheNIGERKILLER]

Lol 😂

[@Sin.Atonement]

1 do you see how many people are making it
2 its not inconsistent at all, sake amount of sugar same amount of lemon

[@bananadog5813]

@@Sin.Atonement exactly. All those people for what? If you just made a few large batches in the morning, you wouldn't need all those people. They only need all those people because they're doing it one glass at time. And inconsistent because the sugar scoop can vary, the quality of the lemon can vary from lemon to lemon. Maybe one is juicer than the next, maybe one is more bitter than the next.

[@Sin.Atonement]

@@bananadog5813 you do it this way because its been done for what 80 years this way, honestly corporations do big batches and it loses the magic.

[@PeachyAutumn]

😂 overpriced for incorrectly made state fair lemonade. That was not even a half assed way to make proper state fair lemonade.

Hat or hairnet. She has too much hair over sugar

IDK about lemonade - all I hear is a shrill sing-songy screeching.
