Home-made Lemonade

by thehomelyyear @ 02. Jul 2008 - 08:40:42 pm

Homemade lemonade
This could not be easier to make...and tastes good
3 unwaxed lemons
5oz/150g sugar
2 pints/I litre & 140mls boiling water
half-oz/10g citric acid (health food shop)

Scrub the lemons. Using a potato peeler, thinly slice the rind and put into a large jug. Add the squeezed lemon juice, the citric acid and the sugar. Pour on the boiling water & stir until the sugar has dissolved. Strain and put in the fridge.

Is the citric acid necessary? Sorry but, what does it do?

Not sure & I think you can make without it - I will try to look it up!

Thanks, I was just curious and wondering if I needed to get some in before trying your recipe :-)
