Obviously – nothing can beat homemade lemonade when the sunshine finally decides to arrive!
When I used to do some outside catering, my lemonade was always a firm favourite. Fortunately, it is so easy to make and can be changed up by introducing different fruits. I love a raspberry lemonade, but a bit of fresh ginger is lovely!
I posted this picture on social media this week and there was “BIG demand” for the recipes. As promised here it is.
Jane’s Homemade Lemonade
This recipe makes about 1 litre and is definitely on my “must make” list for summer.
Ingredients
4 organic, unwaxed lemons
150g caster sugar
Mint leaves
Instructions
Slice the lemons and put them all and any escaping juice into a stainless steel saucepan. Add to these 1.2l of water. Pour in the sugar and bring to the boil stirring to dissolve the sugar.
Remove from the heat and leave to infuse for 15/20 minutes. Strain the lemonade through a sieve into a serving jug or a bowl and leave to cool.
Serve with Ice cubes and mint leaves.
Keep any that you may have left, ready to go – chilled in the fridge
Enjoy

PS Don’t forget that the BIG PICNIC chutney is being retired soon, it is too expensive to make now and therefore is making a fond farewell. Here is the link to bag your jar or jars!!!
