I think this would also be too weak. I used 6 limes, 1/2c sugar, and add water to make 2 quarts, and it wasn't bad. Next time, I'd probably use 8 limes, and maybe a little more sugar. I like mine not too sweet... it seem as 'refreshing' to me.

Bad recipe - it came out too watery. Be sure to taste as you're adding the sugar water.

Good recipe!! I added ice becuase in my own drink because i like it nice and cold. Not too sweet and good amounts of lime and sugar. Just a little bit watery for people who like it sweeter though.

I did as someone else mentioned and used less water. To make a gallon, use 1 c. lime juice, 1 c. sugar and 1 gallon water. Could add cherry juice or Koolaid to add another flavor.

This is in fact a very REFRESHING beverage recipe. I used half sugar and half splenda granular and it turned out great. Perfect drink for a hot summer day or just after a workout. To garnish I froze pieces of flat leaf parsley in ice cube trays with water and added a couple to each glass. Great recipe light and refreshing not too sweet.

Way too weak. We used the same amount of sugar and 15 limes for 2 quarts of water, and it was good.

Not a great recipe. I ended up using 6 big juicy limes to one cup sugar for 2 quarts of water. It just really depends on the juiciness of the fruit. If this had an exact measured amount of lime juice it would come out perfect every time. But it's not that hard to make limeade, just taste as you go along, it'll be great!
