Scrub the lemons with a brush and remove the thin zest from two of them, avoiding the white pith. Squeeze the juice from all the lemons.
Heat the sugar with 300 ml of water until boiling and simmer for 5 minutes, until the crystals dissolve completely.
Take the syrup off the heat, add the zest and cool to room temperature.
Pour the lemon juice and the remaining cold water into a pitcher and strain the syrup into it.
Chill the lemonade in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes and serve with ice.
