Simply Perfect Lemonade

This refreshing drink makes a summer day perfect!

1 cup water
1 cup sugar
1 cup lemon juice (from either 4-6 fresh lemons, or bottled lemon juice)
3-4 cups water

Boil the 1 cup of water. I place it in the microwave for 3 minutes. Then add sugar and mix until sugar is completely dissolved. Pour into your serving container. Add lemon juice and 3-4 cups water. Mix well. Serve over ice! Enjoy!

Makes just under a half a gallon.

Hot Wassail

I love Wassail! It not only taste delicious, but it smells heavenly!

1 gallon apple cider
1 quart orange juice
1 cup lemon juice
1 quart pineapple juice
24 whole cloves
4 sticks of cinnamon
1 cup sugar
sliced oranges

Mix all ingredients in crock pot and set on low for 2-3 hours. You can also bring to simmer on stove top for 1-2 hours. Serve hot!

Leftovers may be refrigerated and reheated later.

Hot Cocoa Mix

As it is snowing outside, all I could think of was hot chocolate! Here is a great mix to warm you up on those cold winter days!

4 lb. box non-fat dry milk
2 lb. box Nestle Quik
1 jar non-dairy creamer
2 cups sugar

Mix well. Store in airtight container. If you want it more chocolaty, add 1/2-1 cup of cocoa powder to the mix.
