Iso: Homemade lemonade recipe

It has been alot of years since I made it and I guess since it's so common knowledge, none of my cookbooks has the recipe.

Can anyone share?

Thanks.

I'm not sure if you'd consider this homemade, but this is how I make lemonade.

1 cup RealLemon lemon juice(I use Walmart's generic brand)
1 cup sugar
6-1/2 cups water

Mix lemon juice and sugar together first. Then add water and stir. Serve over ice.

DH's grandmother thought it tasted very similar to the lemonade her mom made growing up. You can probably use sugar substitute equal to a cup of sugar.

Thanks... I'm actually looking for one that uses real lemons. Seems like vaguely your supposed to boil them to get the juices going then squeeze them? It's been many years since I made it so I can't remember, I know it was simple. We're getting away from processed and commercial foods as much as possible, dh loves lemonade but Koolaid has too much sodium for his diet.
