Yup.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
It's a conspiracy.

Someone out there is keeping track of the FA stuff I've ordered. As soon as it arrives, they, whoever THEY are, send out an email to the minions, asking them to post another recipe for which I have yet to acquire all of the ingredients.

Thanks chickenmonkey. This sounds like it'll be right up my alley.

Hey all!

Yes looks like a plastic lemon

^ has anyone tried using freshly squeezed, strained lemon juice? I recently gave some to a mixing/retailer friend of mine to try in his recipes instead of using the RealLemon stuff. Curious to see if there is any difference, though I would think 'yes'.

Ty very much!. I made your Bells of St. Clements 2 days ago, in the 15 ml size, & not surprisingly, it was gone in less than a day and a 1/2. So, tonite, I mixed up a 60 ml batch, and it's steeping in my crock for 4 hours, then I'll shake it good & let it sit overnite on the counter. Thanks for posting it, I think it's fabulous at 40pg/60vg in my Vulcan dripper! Just can't stop hittin' it! lol....

I don't know if it would go bad. Last time I forgot to add the lemon juice and it was just as good. Probably doesn't really need it.

Thank you for the recipe @chickenmonkey. Made a 10 ml test sample and it is wonderful. Smooth, lively, fresh orange. Will be mixing more.
