Don't forget how crazy expensive lemons are
So, what is the story behind adding the cucumbers to lemon aid? I never heard of that.
After mashing don’t strain just add 1.75 of vodka and your good to go! 😂🤟
Never tried this method but looks so delish!
For an extra twist, grill the lemon before squeezing or macerating….Also add fresh rosemary
What are the measurements???
Yes!
I've been wanting to find out how to make real lemonade. Now, I know, and knowing is half the battle 😁
not mentioned: it’s due to the lemon oils in the peels that permeate the sugar, otherwise it’s just acidic and sweet rather than lemony, acidic, sweet
And booze! Don't forget the booze!
I make the ice cubes out of the same lemonade so it doesn’t get watered down
I made lemonade yesterday with equal parts lemon juice and ginger simple syrup and a lot of cold water. Fantastic!

Yummmmyyyy
As refreshing as this looks, what are the ratios? How much of what do you need?
You forgot the rum!
This is how I prepare my lemonade and this works!!
Americans are addicted to sugar. No wonder they have so much diabetes and obesity.
Whoa! Too much sugar. Lemonade is best with only a hint of sugar.
