- 1 teaspoon
- Carbonated Water
- 4 cups
- Water
- 2 cups
- Granulated Sugar
- 1 cup

- Start by preparing a simple syrup. Combine the granulated sugar and 1 cup of water in a saucepan. Heat it over medium heat and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.

- While the syrup is cooling, squeeze enough lemons to make 1 cup of fresh lemon juice.
- In a large pitcher, combine the freshly squeezed lemon juice, the remaining water, the cooled simple syrup, and the vitamin C powder. Stir the mixture until everything is well combined.
- Just before serving your homemade C.C. Lemon, add the carbonated water to the pitcher. Stir gently to combine, ensuring the fizz is well-distributed but not lost.
- Serve the C.C. Lemon over ice for a truly refreshing experience. Enjoy!
