Catherine, from Kent in the UK, sent in this great homemade lemonade recipe. Let’s take a look at it…
What did you do?
We read the book ‘Maisy Makes Lemonade’ and then decided to make our own lemonade!
To make it you will need:
4 lemons
A few spoons of caster sugar
A bowl of water
Ice cubes
Method: Squeeze the lemons and add the juice to the water.
Add some sugar. Stir well. Taste it and add more if needed.
Add some ice.
Stir again. Pour into a jug and serve.
We drank lots of it! So refreshing to make and drink on a hot day.
We made our outside in the girls outdoor kitchen.
I liked the fact that it was so refreshing and you can drink it straight away.
Do you have any other projects planned?
I’d like to try soap making.
