Lifestyle | When Life Gives You Lemons…

 

…Make Lemonade!

WELCOME to one of my first lifestyle posts… where I will teach you how to make the meals/desserts/drinks that I love to make. My sister reminded me that my vanity post was really my first lifestyle post. Since it’s been a full week since the Poll, voting is closed and you all voted HELL YES to cooking posts, and I am so glad!

Let’s start with something easy first — Lemonade! It’s the perfect summer drink; Just picture yourself sipping on a tall, cold glass of lemonade on a very hot day. Ahhhh…

Here are the ingredients:

6-7 lemons (or enough to make 1 cup of lemon juice)
1 cup of sugar
6-7 cups of water

Here’s how I did it:

1. Roll your lemon on a flat surface to get those juices flowing. Cut it in half and start juicing those lemons, preferably into a measuring cup to make life easier. Pour into a pitcher.
2. Measure out the sugar and go ahead and add that to the pitcher.
3. Fill up the remainder of the pitcher with water. Stir.

Taste it! Too tangy? Not sweet enough? This is the time to add more sugar. Serve with ice in a mason jar and a straw for a great summer drink experience.

EnJOY! I hope you liked the first of many “Lifestyle” and “Cooking | Baking | Drinks” posts. Check out my sidebar. I was so excited to add those as the newest Titles in my Categories section!
