Ingredients
  • 2 lemons
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  2. Place lid firmly on blender and blend on maximum speed for 3 to 5 seconds. (**)
  3. Add sugar, ice, water, and orange flower water. Blend again on high speed for 30 seconds. Pour through a sieve into a serving pitcher.
  4. Serve lemonade in tall glasses with extra ice and lemon slices.
