The thermometer is climbing as the warm summer temperatures arrive. To combat the heat, we should cool down with a glass of this large-batch Blueberry Lemonade, which strikes the perfect balance of sweet and tart.
Make the Simple Syrup
2 In a saucepan over high heat, combine [wprm-ingredient text="1 cup water" uid="1"] and [wprm-ingredient text="1 cup granulated sugar" uid="2"].
3 Swirl the mixture around the pan until the sugar dissolves.
4 When the sugar has dissolved, remove from the heat, and set aside.
Make the Lemonade
7 In a large glass container, combine the [wprm-ingredient text="Simple Syrup" uid="4"], [wprm-ingredient text="10 cups water" uid="5"], [wprm-ingredient text="2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice" uid="6"] and muddled [wprm-ingredient text="2 cups blueberries" uid="7"].
8 Stir with a large spoon until combined.
9 Chill overnight or pour over ice.
10 If chilling overnight, strain the lemonade before serving, removing bits and pieces of blueberries, as well as lemon pulp, if need be. (Or leave them in if you don't mind it!)
11 Chill with the frozen blueberries, and serve cold.
