This homemade lemonade has a melon twist, but also try fresh raspberries or

can dilute with water or soda water.

Cooking: 10 minutes

---------

 

 

6 to 8 lemons, scrubbed

2 cups sugar

2 cups pureed melon pulp (rockmelon -OR- honey melon -OR- watermelon)

water -OR- soda water to dilute as desired

 

 

1. Using a vegetable peeler, peel zest thinly from 3 lemons.

 

2. Place zest, sugar and 1 cup water in a stainless steel saucepan.

 

3. Bring to the boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat; simmer,

without stirring, for 5 minutes. Cool,

 

4. Juice all the lemons and stir into syrup. Add melon puree.

 

5. Chill for 3 hours. Dilute to your taste.

Sounds like a fun recipe to play with! I'm going to try it with different

fruits! This will go over great in the summer too! Now I'm thirsty! lol

Thanks for sharing! :)
