We have fresh lemons coming out of our ears out here in the desert. Here's a good way to use them.
1-1/2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbs grated lemon rind
1-1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup boiling water
Shake all together in a covered jar, water, lemon rind, and sugar. Add juice and shake again. Store in the refrigerator.
When ready to use, add 5 cups cold water, plus ice, to the mixture.
Serve in frosted glassed for extra POW! Dip each glass rim (use stemmed glasses) into some lemon juice to 1/4" on rim. Then dip into sugar and put into the freezer. When removing from the freezer, do not touch the bowl of the glass. Handle only using the stem, or you will ruin the frosted effect.
