My grandma is a legend when it comes to jello.
Everyone remembers her for her jello. She didn't learn to cook until she was married. Everything she made was simple and wholesome. She was amazingly organized and clean. A modern lady and an old fashioned mom whose table was always full and always ready for family.

Sweet Lemonade

I have been working on this one for awhile. It is sort of a take on Asian lemonade/drinks I would have in Korea. The basic recipe was given to me by a friend. These amounts are not set in stone...I just finally measured what I was putting in to give approximate amounts...

7 C water
1 C sugar
1/8 C pineapple juice
1/3 C sweetened condensed milk
1 1/2 tsp citric acid
1 tsp lemon extract

This is beyond delicious. I put mine in a blender and pulse it two or three times just to get the milk mixed in well...

  1. Have you tried the Brazilian Limeade from Our Best Bites? It looks a lot like this recipe.

  2. I haven't done theirs but I have used some other ones and they are similar but they are lime (which I like just as well) but in general everyone seems to like this one a little better. I don't know...the brazillian limeades I have bought are SO good but I haven't had a homemade one that compares...you make it a lot? -Melissa
