About this title

Review:

This delightful book celebrates one of the world s purest pleasures, a good glass of lemonade. For those used to bottled bug juice, this book will make you stand up and shout hooray. Jane and Michael Stern, authors of Eat Your Way Across the U.S.A. We Southerners think we know everything about lemonade, but not till I read Fred Thompson s fascinating book did I realize that the drink could be so versatile and downright sophisticated. He has delved into the subject like nobody else, and never again can I take this old-fashioned refreshment for granted. A delightful new book that should have been written decades ago. James Villas, co-author of My Mother s Southern Entertaining The quintessential book on everyone s favorite lip-smacking refresher. When friends come over I ll certainly reach for Lemonade! Bruce Weinstein, author of The Ultimate Party Drink Book "
