Do you have a Lemonade Recipe?

Here's what I found so far online but that seems like a lot of sugar

INGREDIENTS
1 cup sugar (can reduce to 3/4 cup)
1 cup water (for the simple syrup)
1 cup lemon juice
3 to 4 cups cold water (to dilute)
METHOD
1 Make simple syrup by heating the sugar and water in a small saucepan until the sugar is dissolved completely.
2 While the sugar is dissolving, use a juicer to extract the juice from 4 to 6 lemons, enough for one cup of juice.
3 Add the juice and the sugar water to a pitcher. Add 3 to 4 cups of cold water, more or less to the desired strength. Refrigerate 30 to 40 minutes. If the lemonade is a little sweet for your taste, add a little more straight lemon juice to it.
Serve with ice, sliced lemons.
Serves 6.

This is almost my EXACT recipe! I don't necessarily use all the syrup though.. I use some for iced tea or keep it for other things. And I use a little more lemon. I like it pucker-worthy.

I like an occassional crunch of sugar and the simple syrup eliminates that.. SO
I take a couple of lemons and slice them into rounds. I dip them in granulated sugar (both sides) and drop them in the lemonade..

Sometimes I'll cut a little more syrup and drop in some grenadine.

This is the one I use:

6 cups water
3/4 cup sugar (extra fine sugar will disolve quicker)
juice of 3-4 lemons (about 1/2 cup)
