I love lemonade. Hand-squeezed sweet and tart goodness that instantly seems to hydrate my entire body. There’s nothing quite like it.
I have a secret when I make my lemonade, let’s see if you can see it:
It’s all about the rim.
Remember these?
Or these?
They are part of my fabulous rim.
First, let’s start with the lemonade:
- Freshly squeezed lemons (as many as you want)
- Water (1 cup per lemon)
- 1-3 tablespoons of sugar per lemon (I like less because I like tart)
For the rim:
- 1 part dehydrated lime slice (including zest, pith and all) ground into powder
- 1 part dehydrated lemon slice (including zest, pith and all) ground into powder
- 2 parts sugar
It’s almost like having homemade sourpatch kids on the rim of your glass. It’s pure love.
