We had some fresh picked lemons that needed to be used and so half went to a dutch baby breakfast and the other half became fresh squeezed lemonade.
What you need:
3 lemons
1 1/2 cups sugar
7 cups water
How to make:
Cut the ends off of two lemons and cut each lemon into quarters. In a food processor blend lemons (with peel), sugar and 2 cups of water until all chunks are gone. Strain in a fine mesh strainer and add the juice of one more lemon. You can freeze this concentrate for future use or combine it with 5 more cups of water and serve over ice. So yummy!!!
After a couple of days of being the only one actually home and drinking the lemonade I realized that I was never going to finish it all and decided to make a little "almost summertime" treat. Frozen lemonade.
Pour your lemonade (see recipe above) into a large metal cookie sheet (with sides). Put in freezer for 1-1 1/2 hours. With a fork scrape the lemonade into tiny flakes. Continue this scraping process every hour or 2 until the liquid has fully frozen and the entire tray is filled with a light flaky frozen lemonade. Spoon some into a bowl and enjoy!
