 Ingredients List

  • ---------------------------SINGLE GLASS (8-10 OZ---------------------------
  • 1 Meyer lemon; squeezed, pulp
  • -and juice; seeds optional
  • 3 ts (rounded) sugar (in this

 Directions

GALLON
10 Meyer lemons (juice and pulp
-only)
1/2 c Sugar
Cold water to complete the
-gallon

We have a Meyer lemon tree in our backyard, so we've experimented with the
best porportions for our tastes. For a single glass (~8-10 oz.)

1 meyer lemon squeezed, pulp and juice, seeds optional (it just

depends on how lazy you are about picking them out.)

3 rounded teaspoons of sugar (in this case, teaspoon means a normal

teaspoon used at a table place setting)

cold water to fill the glass

optional: add a bit of the lemon peel (we found this didn't seem to

affect the flavor much.) Caveat:
(1) A meyer lemon is a bit sweeter than the "normal" kind you can

buy in the grocery store. I believe there's a bit of sweet

orange in its family tree somewhere.

(2) We like tart lemonade. Another friend of ours who also has

a Meyer lemon tree uses a fair bit more sugar than we do. For a
gallon: (Here memory is failing a bit. The lemons were used up a while

ago.)

10 Meyer lemons (juice and pulp only)

1/2 cup sugar

cold water to complete the gallon Caveat: It seems that leaving the
seeds in the lemonade causes the lemonade

to turn bitter when it is left overnight in the fridge.

Sorry these are English units. A gallon is a bit less than 4 litres. I'd
have to look up how many grammes of sugar are in a cup. If you want me to
convert the recipe, let me know.
