Making Gallons of Limeade
Today I’m making lots and lots of limeade for an
organization my mom works for. She’s a therapist/counselor for a company that
does a lot of good work for people in need within the community; and, every
year their company hosts’ a Thanksgiving dinner for all the families. Each year the workers (including my mother) make the entire dinner and every year my
sister and I usually help with something. So, this time around my mom asked me to make
the limeade I'd created for my blog a while back (You can click here for the recipe).
This drink is seriously delicious—I even served myself a cup because I had to
insure it was perfect, hehe—just an excuse to have a sip.
I ended up getting 6 gallons of limeade out of 20 limes!
Zesting limes...

ReplyDeletethe more i scrolled the more my mouth watered. i've never tried lime-onade, but it sure does look good. i wonder if i can somehow con my brother into doing the squeezing...hmmm
ReplyDeleteActually, this recipe has no squeezing involved :-D You can even make a jug full with only 2 large limes. It's a blended version. You can just cut the skin off, blend with sugar and water, run it through a sieve, and add more water & sugar to taste :-D Super easy.
DeleteMy kids LOVE making limeade! They've never added the zest, so I'm going to give your recipe to my daughter. =0)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great thing that your mom's company does, and it's even more great that you and your sis help your mom out with it each year. I'm sure your mom is grateful for your help as well.
