Method

  1. Take thin-skinned lemons;
  2. roll them on the table until very soft;
  3. slice very thin with a sharp knife into a large pitcher, averaging one lemon to a person, thus allowing them two glasses apiece.
  4. Put in the pitcher with the sliced lemon a cup of white sugar to five lemons (or more if yow want it sweeter) and pound all well together with a potato masher;
  5. put in a lump of ice;
  6. let it stand a few minutes and fill the pitcher with ice water.
  7. This makes lemonade that is lemonade, and the peel in the pitcher is delicious.
