For a sweeter limeade, increase the sugar to 3/4 cup. For a tarter version, reduce the sugar to 1/2 cup. Adjust the water to lime juice ratio to your personal taste. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor won't be as bright. For a sparkling limeade, substitute sparkling water or club soda for the cold water.
