  4. Homemade lemonade is piss easy to do
    To make 1 litre
    4 large lemons
    4 tablespoons sugar ( you can adjust this to suit)
    1 litre boiling water
    Take the zest off the lemons (don't get any pith or it will be bitter)
    Put in a container with the sugar
    Pour on boiling water, stir, cover, stir periodically until it cools
    Squeeze lemons
    Add juice when water mix is cool that way you don't lose the vitamin C content
    Strain and voilá

    GIVE IT A GO! ;)

    I took that blurry picture at the old abandoned North Truro Air Force Station which was taken over by the department of transportation and who later built a radar dome :2thumbsup:

    I havent had Lemonade in many years but being QUITE DESPERATE for a good drink lately,I bought some 4C LEMONADE and as I thought,it tasted NOT GOOD (Like I remember in the 80s (Not much sugar))

    I have some cane sugar so I kept adding until it tasted delicious Like I remember it :)

    I find lemonade to be rather boring.
    Every now and again it can be the most refreshing thing ever, but then that's why pub squash was invented. :)

    have you tried it without the sugar? its really good that way. lime works the same. which is when i buy the concentrate i usually get lime. but a fresh lemmon from your own lemon bush in your own garden is always best of all.

    I like a nice lemonade on a hot and sunny day. What I don't like though is when sometimes the taste is a bit sour and just ruins the overall taste or when it's like mostly water.
