    Sounds wonderful! I"ll try it, starting with a bit less sugar 'cause that's just the way I am :) , for our Independence Day cookout coming up this week. Yum! - 6/29/08

    So glad you will give it a try. Feel free to adjust according to your taste - but it's so wonderful with the flavor from the sliced lemons when the rinds release their oils. Enjoy!
