How to make lemon water?
Of course I know it's just lemon and water, but how much lemon? 1/2, 1/4....? and do you squeeze the lemon into the water or put the slices of lemon in the water?

It depends how much taste you want. If you want a strong taste of lemons, do 1/2 of the lemons. I would just let the lemons sit in the water.

There are several ways to make lemon water. The first way is to simply squeeze fresh lemon juice into a glass/pitcher/cup of water. The second way is put several lemon slices into a pitcher of water and let it sit in the refrigerator over night. This way, the lemon will infuse the water. You can do this with other fruits and vegetables as well. If you enjoy lemon water, I'd recommend infusing a pitcher of water with cucumber and blueberry next. It's quite delicious and refreshing!

All you need is fresh water, and 1/2 a lemon, and you squeeze all the juice out of the lemon into the water and add sugar if you wish to make lemonade.

The most refreshing drink of summers: the most important part is the selection of a juicy fresh lemon. take 20 ml (approximately 2 tbsp) freshly squeezed lemon into the water add 2 tea spoon of sugar and mix well, add a slice of lime to garnish and you are just a gulp away from a refreshing experiance

1/4th of lemon can be squeezed into water and sugar can be added too.
