Great, fresh, it's like drinking sunshine! So refreshing and so good, great for summer. We had it with and without alcohol and LOVE both. Thanks so much, Marramamba, for sharing!

Wowzer, this is even better than the Mikes Hard Lemonade I buy at the liquor store. So much flavor, I love the addition of the lemon zest. It was perfect, tart, tangy and sweet. I did make two batches, one for the hubby who doesn't drink... and one for me with vodka... it is so very good. You all need to try this, it is very refreshing. Made for Players Favorites - 5 Star Gems. This is going into my Best of Cookbook for 2021. Kudos to you Marra.

This was excellent! I made this Hard Lemonade for our Father's Day dinner, and it was well received. The sun eventually made an appearance so we sat on the deck to get some sun, and this Hard Lemonade was so refreshing and just the thing to cool off a bit. Six of the lemons I used were really ripe and juicy, but two were a bit "green", so I was worried it might be a bit tart and require more sugar. But I stuck to the amounts listed in the recipe, and I didn't need extra sugar. I'll make this often. Thanks, Marramamba!

This is a summer favorite at my house. Usually we just use store-bought lemonade, but used the fresh lemons this time. Loved the zing from the zest. Thanks for sharing!
