August 29th is: Lemon šŸ‹ Juice Day -- Hooray! Wondering Why i'm so Psyched? ..

LEMON JUICE (ideally fresh squeezed… ) is an essential ingredient in a range of culinary applications (yes — for making COCKTAILS, mocktails and many modes of mixology are at the top of my ā€œWhy I love Lemon Juiceā€ List … but also it’s a key ingredient in my signature home-made salad dressing (some of the most amazing salad dressing known to human kind IMHO)….. and I add it to drinking water … and to both hot and cold tea all the time..’

And as of this year (2025) i have a whole new fresh tangy crop of fascinating LEMON & other CITRUS HISTORY to share!

…the makings of some of the most amazing salad dressing known to human kind…

— … Rooted in original research I did for the Pepsi-Cola Corp —luckily the citrus history part i unearthed is not proprietary to them … in fact I shared some slices of that earlier this year at a Black History Month event at Lefferts House where my drink demo and talk centered on reclaiming the ā€œArnold Palmerā€ (1/2 iced tea, 1/2 lemonade) …audio and video highlights of which I’m also happy to share with my Patreon peeps — so sign up and look forward to MORE thirst quenching pours of hidden history.

In a pinch or pressed for time — for most recipes using (ideally organic) lemon juice in a glass jar is just fine! But i (as should you) do my best to avoid lemon juice in plastic containers for a host of reasons i wont go into hear - feel free to ask me all about it either on my Patreon platform or via a DM and I will gladly share why…In addition to giving you a copy of that slammn salad dressing I mentioned beforeā€¦šŸ˜‹

IN TME MEANTIME — Check out my fresh Lemon Juice Day reel here where i’m picking lemons fresh from my Mama (& Papa’s) S. California back yard , washing off said lemons then slicing into them on the kitchen counter to make fresh squeezed lemon juice — main ingredient: California sunshine from a tree …..
