Notes
No need to roll lemons before juicing, since you’re not muddling them, the juice and oils go straight into the drink.
For a more tart flavor, reduce sugar or add more lemon juice. If it’s too tart, balance it with extra sweet cream or sugar.
Always wash lemons before using. A warm water rinse or quick vinegar soak is enough, no soap needed.
You can add fruit, such as strawberries or raspberries. Use syrups for a stronger, sweeter flavor or fresh fruit for brightness and texture. To keep seeds out, strain the finished drink through a fine-mesh sieve.
