Flavor profile: citrussweetsour

Fresh lemonade is fresh lemon juice, cold water, and simple syrup (or sugar dissolved into the water). Ratios vary; a reasonable starting point is 1 part lemon juice to 4 parts water with sugar to taste. In an Arnold Palmer, lemonade meets strong iced tea at roughly 50/50 — Arnold himself preferred it a little more tea-heavy.
