My sister and I spent a week each summer with Aunt Frances, who always had this thirst-quenching lemonade in a stoneware crock in the refrigerator. It tastes so much like fresh citrus. It made such a refreshing drink after a hot day running around the farm. -Debbie Reinhart, New Cumberland, PA.

This is the best lemonade I ever had. From now on I will not make an other lemonade. This is truly the best and it is so refreshing. Thanks!
