Summertime Lemonade
Lemonade is the perfect thirst quencher during hot summers. But if you live in an area where you can grow lemons, by the time summer rolls around, you have long ago picked the last of the lemons. So in the winter, pick as many lemons as you possibly can, zest and juice them, and then freeze your labor for summertime use.
