Lemonade Ingredients (use vegan versions): 1 meyer lemon - squeezed, pulp and juice, seeds optional
3 rounded teaspoons of sugar (in this case, teaspoon means a normal teaspoon used at a table place setting)
cold water to fill the glass
optional: add a bit of the lemon peel (we found this didn't seem to affect the flavor much.)
Directions:Combine ingredients for a single glass (~8-10 oz.).
Caveat: A meyer lemon is a bit sweeter than the normal kind you can buy in the grocery store. I believe there's a bit of sweet orange in its family tree somewhere. We like tart lemonade. Another friend of ours who also has a Meyer lemon tree uses a fair bit more vegan sugar than we do.
For a gallon: (Here memory is failing a bit. The lemons were used up a while ago.)
10 Meyer lemons (juice and pulp only), 1/2 cup vegan sugar and cold water to complete the gallon
Caveat: It seems that leaving the seeds in the lemonade causes the lemonade to turn bitter when it is left overnight in the fridge.
Sorry these are English units. A gallon is a bit less than 4 litres. I'd have to look up how many grammes of vegan sugar are in a cup.
sounds good!
