Our lemon trees have been dropping fruit by the basket full ever since spring. Even after giving away bags full, we are still left with dozens.
It beggars belief that the supermarkets are selling American lemons for $1.50 each.
Pa is the chief cordial maker at our place.Here's his recipe:
2cups of sugar
2 cups of boiling water
2 cups of lemon juice
which gives you about a litre of cordial, and a few pips !!!Store it in the fridge, where it will last for a few weeks, theoretically. Ours never lasts that long.
To make the most refreshing drink for a hot summer day,
add one part cordial to 3 parts water, plus lots of ice of course.
I can only imagine how healthy it must be with all that vitamin C in it
