The old Gary Cooper movie, Sgt. York, is a family favorite with our entire team. In one scene Ma asks the blessing and says, "Lord bless these vittles we done got...". Hence, the name of our recipe collection.

3-2-1 Lemonade

A MOMYS recipe

3 large lemons
2 C. sugar
1 gallon water

Thinly slice the lemons into rounds.  Layer the lemons and the sugar in a bowl.  Use a potato masher to mash and combine the lemons and sugar.  Allow to set for 10 minutes.  Put the mixture in a sieve over a gallon pitcher.  Smash the juice through the sieve.  Add 1 gallon of ice.  Chill and serve.

This is really awesome lemonade.  Mommy craved this when pregnant with Ezra and Jonathan.  We usually use more lemons than the recipes states.  This is very sweet and yummy!  Probably not the best drink in the world but a very yummy treat.
Love Always,
Mommy
