I loved this lemonade! At night, add a little rum or creme de banane!

This could be made easily with double the water as it is very sweet. So don't be surprised if you find yourself adding water. Very nice and a different kind of flavour.

I made this today because I needed to use up some ripe bananas. This was very interesting and tasty. Never thought lemon & banana would go well together but they do. Thanks for another winner Di!

Very frothy! Next time, I'll refrigerate for awhile while dinner is being prepared and use a little less sugar (I used 3 T) since the banana I used was plenty sweet. Very good was to get a banana in for the day! Thanks Nurse Di!
