  1. I made this with fresh lemons straight off the tree, and it was perfect for our cocktails! Thanks for posting!
     
  2. Excellent! I used this to make recipe #348114 but I did make one change - I halved the lemon juice and used the full amount of sugar (and used superfine sugar). Worked great. Thanks!
     
  3. delicious. I made a three times batch and used it for mixed drinks on New Years Eve. It worked great. Thank you!
     
  4. This is very good! Just like the bottled mix. I cut the recipe down to make just enough to put in my Margarita. I might just make this rather than buying the bottled mix. It would save me some money. Thanks for sharing your recipe. This is for the Fall '07 PAC
     
  5. This worked well for sour mix. In order to get the sugar to disolve faster I heated the lemon juice mixture in the microwave. Thanks SLColman, this was great with your Electric Lemonade.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am originally from Florida, near Tampa. I attended undergrad at the University of Tampa, and grad school at Auburn University. When I got married I moved to Wyoming. Talk about culture and environment shock!! I love animals, especially dogs. We try to get rescue dogs, particularly huskies. We currently have 2 huskies - one Siberian male and one Alaskan female. Huskies have so much personality! I am a fan of the childrens books about Winnie the Pooh. I especially love TIGGER. Actually I love just about everything Disney. One of the things I miss most from living in Florida was getting to go to Walt Disney World anytime I wanted to. It really is one of the happiest places on earth. I love to cook and am always trying a new recipe. I also like to garden, but find it quite a challenge here in Wyoming with our long winters and dry windy short summers. I like to experiment with herbs and spices. During the summer of 2006 I was diagnosed with PCOS and as such realized that the excess weight I was carrying was quite literally killing me. I found SparkPeople.com and was able to lose over 75 pounds now with not too much more to go. My cooking has changed some since then in that I still cook the same foods I just go about it in a much healthier way. Taste is paramount to me - so if it doesn't taste good then why bother! :) <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket">
