When life gives you lemons....make lemonade!

So, we are in the dog days of summer, a summer like no other, with many kids still under a quarantine at home and all creative ideas exhausted!  Why not make some delicious fresh lemonade from scratch!  It is so easy to do with lemons from Florida - the juiciest in the world!  

Here is my own recipe for lemonade that is a bit strong, but I pour it over a glass of ice and it is perfect!

Martha’s Fresh Florida Lemonade

• 1 cup organic sugar crystals
