Hot and sweaty after a run the other day, Matt and I decided to use our lime surplus to make a batch of limeade. Or more specifically, a big batch of limeade concentrate that we can now utilize in making not only limeade, but ginger beer, margaritas, mojitos, and anything else
calling for sweet limey goodness.
Not kidding about the hot and sweaty part
Juicing the limes
Making simple syrup by heating equal parts sugar and water
Adding the lime juice to the simple syrup
Add the appropriate ratio of water and enjoy!
We found that the ratios in the recipe made for a slightly sweet, syrupy limeade for our tastes. I would increase the ratio of plain water and according decrease the ratio of simple syrup. Otherwise, though, we give it a thumbs up!
