I've decided to have a crack at an alcoholic lemonade. I read almost every thread known to the internet but haven't found one that tickled my fancy.
So I thought I'd pull one outta left field. Here goes:-
2kg Lemons
1 1/2kg LDME
1kg Raw Sugar
US-05 Starter
Juice the lemons, put in sterile container and refrigerate.
Zest 1/2 the lemons
Bring LDME and Raw Sugar to boil in a coupla litres of water
Add lemon zest and boil for 10 minutes
Strain into fermenter, top up to 22 litres
Pitch 500ml US-05 starter
Allow 2-5 days for primary fermentation
Add lemon juice to secondary
Allow 7-10 days for brew to finish/clean up
Bottle
Wait to carbonate
Drink
Get drunk*fingers crossed*
