Synopsis

Linda Abernathy of the Arkansas Times exclaims, Homemade lemonade tastes like sun sparkling across a lake on a summer morning. Compared to its fresh, natural lemon flavor, the instant stuff might as well be lemon-flavored dishwater. Lemonade is as American as apple pie. In Lemonade, Fred Thompson creates 50 diverse recipes that will take you far beyond the basic lemonade-stand fare of childhood. Ranging from simple to sophisticated, the recipes include such classics as Old-Fashioned Lemonade, new twists like Ginger Lemonade and Watermelon Lemonade; sparkling versions like Lime & Lemonade Cooler; and spiked versions such as Lemonade Martini and Slush Puppy Deluxe. Lemonade is also bursting with gorgeous full-color photography, useful information about buying, juicing, and storing lemons, and has sections on helpful lemonade basics. Whether you are trying an exciting new variation or a more traditional recipe, Thompson will show you that there really is no substitute for a large glass of freshly homemade lemonade.

Media Reviews
This delightful book celebrates one of the world s purest pleasures, a good glass of lemonade. For those used to bottled bug juice, this book will make you stand up and shout hooray. Jane and Michael Stern, authors of Eat Your Way Across the U.S.A. We Southerners think we know everything about lemonade, but not till I read Fred Thompson s fascinating book did I realize that the drink could be so versatile and downright sophisticated. He has delved into the subject like nobody else, and never again can I take this old-fashioned refreshment for granted. A delightful new book that should have been written decades ago. James Villas, co-author of My Mother s Southern Entertaining The quintessential book on everyone s favorite lip-smacking refresher. When friends come over I ll certainly reach for Lemonade! Bruce Weinstein, author of The Ultimate Party Drink Book
