Three Ingredient Lemonade for One (makes approximately 2 cups)

Since trying mediterranean chickpea salad, on demand blueberry jam, and making strawberry jam every June there's always a bottle of lemon juice in my refrigerator. With summer in full gear here in New England, I decided to try my hand at homemade lemonade using my recipes for cold brew iced tea and homemade sports drink as guidelines. This is the result. 

1 cup water at room temperature 

1 cup cold water 

1 tablespoon lemon juice 

1/8 – ¼ teaspoon sweetener such as sugar or stevia 

Pinch of salt (optional) 

Using container which can hold 2 or more cups of liquid, like a quart-size mason jar, pour room temperature water and lemon juice into container. Add salt, if using. Stir. Add cold water. Stir again. Serve.
