3106.1 | Making Fresh Lemonade | PENUTS::SKASTBERG | Sue | Tue Jul 02 1991 13:34 | 11 |
| The first thing to do if you're going to drink fresh lemonade (or iced tea)
is to take a glass jar, fill it with equal amounts of sugar and water, and
heat it in a microwave oven until the sugar is dissolved. You can store
this "liquid sugar" in the refrigerator. The sugar will remain dissolved.
The proportions for fresh lemonade are 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 2
tablespoons liquid sugar, 1 cup (minus 2 tablespoons) water.
Lemonade doesn't taste good if you make a large batch and store it for
several days. I squeeze and store the lemon juice separately and make it
glass by glass as I need it.

| And when you get that limeade made, use it to make the best margaritas
in the world! No bar that I know of uses fresh lime juice. When I got
my Waring juicer, limes were the first thing I juiced. Then I got a
bottle of Cuervo Gold, a bottle of Gran Marnier, a package of coarse
salt - and don't remember much past 5 p.m. ;^>

| Frozen Margaritas

4 oz. triple sec
2.5 oz. limeade
ice
Combine first three ingredients in blender, add ice until whirlpool
no longer visable on top of blender flask. Serves 4.
Credit to Bob Tedesco for this tasty formula. Throw your Rose's Lime
Juice away - this is much better.

| I got this recipe out of the Joy of Cooking book. Similar to one of the
previous entries.
Into a saucepan put 1 cup of water, 2 cups of sweetener(I use fructose,
don't use refined sugar no more) and the rind of 2 lemons. Boil it for
5 minutes. Let cool. Strain.
Add the juice of six lemons to the syrup. I fill an 8oz. glass about
1/2 in. to an inch of syrup, ice, top it off with water, and of course
a slice of one of the lemons that I juiced. And then...ahhhhhhhhh.
Is this stuff addicting or WHAT? I've been on this fresh made lemonade
kick now for about a month and I see no change in sight. One way to
get my vitamin c.

> Doesn't the rind make it bitter tasting?
if you carefully peel off just the colored part of the rind, and don't
get ANY of the white pith, the rind simply enhances the lemon flavor...it is
not the bitter part - the layer just under the colored layer is the bitter
part.
