  1. Love lemon...buy the huge bag at Costco....I have to be careful with sugar...so I just use stevia or monk fruit...a none calorie sweetener....no need to make a simple syrup..it desolves very well and no calories..esp. if you are watching your sugar...I also use in iced tea etc...
     
  2. Super easy recipe for homemade lemonade. It's the perfect blend of tartiness and sweetness.
     
  3. I use 4 1/2 cups water, 1 cup lemon juice and 1/2 cup honey....yum!
     
  4. I love this recipe so im gonna use it when i move to australia to cope with the heat cuz it is summer there. I make it almost every day i can and it is not too sweet and not too sour. :)

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I live in North Western Kentucky on the Indiana and Illinois borders. I work at a television station (ABC affiliate). I love to create in the kitchen (cant call it cooking, 'cause some of the things only the trashbag gets to taste). Been married for 13 years. Have 4 girls 11, 7, 2, and 3months. They take up most of my free time. If I had a month off of work, I wouldn't know what to do, after working 2 jobs and about 50-60 hours every week for a year and a half. I love going to amusement parks. I have only been to Kings Island (Ohio), Six Flags (St. Louis), Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom (Kentucky), and Disney World (Florida). My all time dream is to visit EVERY amusement park (especially Cedar Point)
