Best Lemonade Ever|Hacks and Techniques
Whenever you are making Lemon Juice, are you constantly thinking about how to make the juicing process easier for you?
Well, it’s not only you. There are a lot of people who are facing the same issue and searching for a permanent solution to it.
Here is the trick you can use to lessen up the hectic.
- Make Lemon Juice Cubes: Juice a lot of Lemons at a time and store them in ice trays as ice cubes. A single block of an ice cube can store about 1 tablespoon of Lemon Juice. While filling the ice tray remember not to fill up the cube to the brim. Otherwise, it will cause problems to pop up the cubes in the time of making the lemonade. Use a popup ice cube tray for your ease.
- Store the juice in a bottle: You can also store plenty amount of juice in glass jars or bottles. Remember, if you are using a glass jar/bottle to store the juice, do not fill up the whole bottle. When the liquid gets frozen in the freezer, it increases in size. So, if you fill the bottle full to the brim it might explode and can cause harm to your freezer.
With that said, let’s get into the recipes.
