Ingredients (US CUSTOMARY - METRIC)

• 2 1/2 cups fresh squeezed orange juice from 6-8 juicy oranges
• 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1/2 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• 5 cups club soda or water

Instructions

Place 1 1/2 cups sugar and 1 1/2 cups water in a small sauce pot. Heat and stir until the sugar has dissolved. (This can also be done in the microwave.) Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.

Squeeze 2 1/2 cups of orange juice and 1/2 cup lemon juice into a large pitcher. Pour the sugar syrup into the pitcher. If making ahead, add 5 additional cups of water. Stir and refrigerate.

If serving right away, pour 5 cups club soda to the pitcher instead of tap water. This creates a bubbly soda fountain quality!

Notes

Orangeade tastes best when you use really juicy sweet oranges.
I like to use a mix of Cara Cara oranges and Navel Oranges.
