I know that Spring has truly arrived up here in the North......it's windy!!!!! Very Windy.......Mary Poppins wouldn't even come here....that or she is stuck against a wall because the wind current is so strong.....
"Just a spoonful of sugah......." Supercalafragilisticexpealidoious...Hmmm, I won't spell check that one. ANYWAYS!!!
This week's post is a lovely wonderful spring like drink. One to sip on the veranda on a non-windy day. These are my plans for May... To sit outside, watch my tomato plants grow and drink copius amounts of Vanilla Lemonade. Yep, Vanilla!!!
This is truly a smooth drink. The vanilla takes away the acidity but still allows the lemon to shine through. I LOVE IT!! A Pair made in Heaven. I tried it on some family members and they were pleasantly surprised. Sweet, smooth, and yet...lemonadey!
Here is the recipe.
Vanilla Lemonade
What you Need:
1 cup lemon juice (fresh squeezed or bottled)
7 1/2 cups cold water
1 cup sugar
2 tsp of vanilla extract (if you can find the clear vanilla even better, but no worries if ya can't)
lemon slices and ice
What you Do:
Combine ingredients and stir until sugar is dissolved. Add lemon slices and ice. Enjoy!!
