Then we tried it out and it was so tasty and really sweet.
Here's what you need:
a clean, two-litre plastic bottle, with a screw-on cap
three lemons.
a cup of sugar
a little bit of granulated yeast
a jug for pouring
Put the sugar into the jug. Add some hot water from the tap, and stir it all until the sugar is dissolved. Cut the lemons in half and squeeze them into the jug, too. Pour the mixture into your bottle, then add cold water until the bottle is almost full.
Leave about five centimetres of space at the top. Now add the yeast - about a quarter of a teaspoon will do. This is what makes the mixture fizz. Screw the cap on tightly, and tip the bottle to mix everything.
The lemonade needs time to become fizzy. Leave it for about four days in a place that will not be too hot or cold.
You can tell if the lemonade is ready by squeezing the bottle. It is ready if the bottle feels quite hard. Before you open it, put it in the fridge for a while.
