How to make a Better Lemonade
I've long made my own lemonade with just water, lemon juice, and sugar. I would traditionally just put these ingredients into a glass, stir for awhile and that was it. But I recently discovered a little trick that makes it taste 100% better!
Put these same ingredients into a food processor or blender and let it go at full speed for at least 3 minutes. What'll happen is that the lemon juice will start to turn into a delightful foam. Then add enough ice to cool it and crunch this for a minute or so.
After pouring into a glass, I like to toss a little salt onto the drink to give it a margarita-like sensation.

Add a little fresh ginger. Yum. And make it with honey instead of sugar for a more "rustic" taste.
Add some lemon zest, or use Meyer lemons, and it's even better.
You can jazz it up my dipping the edge of the drinking glasses in sugar (similar to a Margarita drink).
