*As my lemons are huge, I have no idea how many lemons you are going to need. Mine are probably 3-4x the size of store-bought lemons.
**Mutated lemons not yet ripe enough to use and not pictured below.
Recipe:
1 - 1½ cup(s) lemon juice
5 cups water
1 cup sugar
1 fresh basil leaf
Makes ~1½ quarts of lemonade.
Cut your lemons in half. Make the lemon juice with a reamer or juicer. Mix the lemon juice with the water and sugar; make and add some more lemon juice if this just isn't tart enough for you. Keep doing this until you think it's amazing.
Then, pour half of the lemonade into the blender, along with the basil leaf. Chop that leaf into tiny pieces! (This is known as muddling.) Watch the lemonade foam.
Pour the lemonade from the blender back into the rest of the lemonade. Mix well, drink!
Bonus: make some iced tea (no recipe. The machine does it itself. I use 2 orange pekoe pekoe tea bags and 1 peach tea bag). Mix with lemonade in a glass for an Arnold Palmer.
wash&scrub your lemons with the world's most adorable scrubber.
cut the monstrous lemons in half and juice 'em. preferably on a reamer/juicer.
yum time!
make some iced tea if you're feeling like an arnold palmer.
