How Do You Make Hot Spiced Lemonade?
The alternative to hot chocolate on a cold snowy day is Hot Spiced Lemonade. This drink will quickly warm you up after a brisk walk or sledding or shoveling the walk of snow. This is also a good drink for a crisp fall picnic by placing the drink in a thermos. It is high in vitamin C which we all need in the cold weather months. This drink would also be good for someone suffering from a cold or flu. More liquids need to be consumed especially those high in vitamin C to help fight a cold or flu. Combine the 9 cups of water with the lemon juice, orange juice, sugar, vanilla and the cloves. Stir the above mixture to make sure the sugar has dissolved completely. Simmer on low heat till completely hot. Serve in coffee mugs with a slice of lemon and a cinnamon stick. Can be served immediately or refrigerated and reheated on simmer for future use.
