Lemon Coke

Part of my own personal – ‘Iron Chef: Battle Lemons’ series. I was recently ‘gifted’ with a bag of a zillion lemons. Yes. I counted them. They were very ripe and I needed to work fast, I thought of every single possible dish I could make and ended up with tons of new lemon-y dishes.
This isn’t a fantastically high tech recipe, but you know. Whaddya gonna do. I love Lemon Coke. I order it when I go to old skool soda fountains. I’m retro like that.
ingredients:
1 can of coke
juice of HALF a lemon
Pour a can of coke into a cup. Cut a lemon in half and squeeze the juice in. Stir.
Told you it was a lame recipe. But SO GOOD.
These go GREAT with Lemon Zest French Fries…

Hmm… I have some oranges in the fridge. I wonder how that might taste.

Lemon coke is great! For an extra kick, I add just a bit of fresh ginger kinda mushed up on the bottom.
My lemon tree is churning out lemons so I was wondering what to do with lemons myself!
