As a child, going to the Country fair was a treat.... meeting up with my friends, checking out the silly looking chickens (which we now have a flock of :) ), scouting for free goods from the vendor booths and ordering sweet, ice cold, tad-bit-tangy, lemonade. Ohhh it was good! Below is the closest thing I have found to recreate the drink...
County Fair Lemonade
1 large lemon
Enough ice (crushed or shaved is best) to fill the glass
1/3 cup sugar
cold water
**Cut lemon in half, slice a small piece from one of the pieces for a garnish. Juice lemon. Using a jar or a glass with a tight filling lid, place lemon slice along with sugar, juice from the lemon, ice and enough water to fill the glass. Shake until the sugar is dissolved.
Serve immediately.
Be sure to head on over to A Latte Talk for more summer drinks.
