Lemonade 5¢

As we passed the lemons in the grocery store Wednesday, Alex asked if we could make lemonade. It seemed a great way to celebrate the warmer weather and Spring blossoms popping out all over our Nation's Capital. We finally found the time to make it this morning before church and anticipated its tart sweetness all through meetings.
We weren't disappointed!

Alex's First Homemade Lemonade
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 to 1 & 1/2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 more cups cold water or to taste

• Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the sugar dissolves. Remove from the heat.
• Combine the remaining ingredients and chill for at least 1 hour. Yum!

Some of lesser tastes in this house will disagree with me, but I say lemonade is always better with pulp. I found a really interesting recipe online for whole lemon lemonade. Anyone ever tried this? It sounds great.
