Yes…it smells good…like petunias and sunscreen and fresh grass on the breeze.
My favourite kinds of days…

Lemonade Recipe Tips:

• I often keep cubes of frozen fresh lemon juice in my freezer and will use those to make this recipe.
• Depending on how sweet or tart you like your drink, you can use 1/2 to 3/4 cup of sugar.
• This drink will keep in the fridge for several days…that is, if you don’t drink it all by then!
