In the Midwest, we had an early spring or should I say summer with high 80s in March.
One thing hubby likes is lemonade when it is hot. I don't mind making it and I'm amazed that some think it is a lot of work. I guess if I were making gallons at a time, it might be, but to make a pitcher of it ever couple of days isn't that big a hassle. And finding lemons on sale is a bonus!
I don't have fancy equipment. I bought this little squeezer a couple of years ago for $1 and it is handy because it fits right over the pitcher.
Lemonade:
4 small lemons or two medium to large lemons, squeezed. I roll them on the counter a bit to try and get as much juice. I also wash them before I cut into them.
1/4 to 1/2 cup sugar (depending on tartness of lemons)
4 cups of water
Stir and serve chilled.
DH loves it!
Lemonade anyone?

I have an upright citris press as it makes it a little easier on my hands and wrists than a traditional press.
