More Lemonade...it is Hot ~

Okay, so Summer is in full swing here - for us Seattle-ites, 90+ degrees and we are almost on the verge of melting! Thanks to my sister-in-laws pool (thank you, thank you Nicole) and some good ole' lemonade, we are good to go. Stay cool!

"This perennial favorite requires just 3 ingredients: lemon juice, sugar, and water. This means it won't take much time away from a leisurely summer afternoon to mix a batch. To make 2 quarts, pour 3 cups of fresh lemon juice (from about 20 lemons) through a fine sieve into a pitcher. Add 2 cups of superfine sugar, and stir until it has dissolved. Stir in 4 cups of water and some ice, and then garnish with lemon slices". - www.marthastewart.com

  1. I have been making my mom's lemonade for years and everyone loves it. However it is with concentrated lemon juice, sugar, water and a squeezed orange. Yum, yum!!
