Lemonade Stand Guide

[girlzluv2play]

889wlry needed lemonade help. Right now, I'm going to make a good guide for anyone else who'd like to make a lemonade stand! This will have how to make homemade lemonade with lemons or lemon juice, a good place to set up your stand, good times to do it, and other stuff. So sit back and relax! This may take a while. Get comfy, because this is about to begin.


LEMONADE STAND GUIDE

Yum! It's a hot day, and you're making a lemonade stand. One problem-you don't know how to!! This is the guide that will help you do just that.

MAKING LEMONADE
Ingredients:
6 large lemons
1 cup sugar
2 qt. Cold water
Ice

What to do:
Cut the lemons in half. You should have 12 lemon halves.
Now juice it with a juicer. Remove any seeds from the pitcher.
Stir in the other ingredients and add ice.
Note: To make it more festive, use frozen grapes instead of ice cubes! Or you can use both...

This is the recipe to use with lemon juice.
Ingredients:
Two cups lemon juice
1 cup sugar
2 qt. Cold water
Ice

What to do:
Add the lemon juice to a pitcher
Mix in water and sugar
Add ice
Note: You can use any frozen fruit as ice cubes in both recipes!

Now paint your pitcher and add a lemon slice at the edge! You've made lemonade!

THE SIGN
We all need a good looking sign. It sells the lemonade, sometimes. Here you'll find out how to make a good one!

Get a large piece of poster board, and paints. Let's say your name was Jenna. Maybe it is. Say

"Jenna's fresh and homemade LEMONADE!"

I have a demonstration here. I did this in paint. Sorry if it's not the best, but it's all I got;

Notice how I added ice cold. Also, if you add fun little doodles and make it look cute, then it's more likely to help you when a customer passes by. It should also have a sticky note on it saying

"50 cents to enjoy a cup of delicious lemonade". That should be the price.

Now, go out after dinner and try and sell this stuff! After dinner because that's normally when people walk. Or at least around here. Hope you have fun!

Note: This is just suggestions. You don't have to follow my guidelines.

Oh, P.S, it's also good to have a very faint yellow posterboard...

Thanks for the cool tips! I'm sure lots of people have learned quite a bit from this! (I know I did )

Shouldn't this be in the Guides & How-tos section?

I don't know. I wonder.

I just flagged it so the mods can check it out.

Great guide! I have one or two other suggestions:

- Sell stuff other than just lemonade. Like cookies. Or water.
- Have a small size and a large size glass
- Keep extra lemonade-making supplies on hand, just in case.
- Have a swimming pool or playground near your house? See if you can set up your stand there, especially if the swimming pool/playground is near a crossroads.
