Merlin, it would be a Hanging Offence, can you imagine the reaction of going into a decent old fashioned Scottish pub and asking for a large malt with a sprinkling of lemon rind on it :-D :-D :-D

I used to like a slice of lemon in a gin and tonic - but I developed an allergy to the main ingredient - juniper berries :-( :-( :-(

Researching:
I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"

Same as you Paula, have sliced and frozen on a tray for years,also limes. I've had a bagful in the freezer since before xmas, have gone off G&T. Will try to use it in cooking!! ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

P.S. It would ruin the whisky...

Dealing with lemons, and rinds, is just a case of pithing around ;-)

I'm just wondering if liquidising the whole lemon and then freezing would be any good ...at least for hot drinks

I love lemons (lemonade, lemon pudding, lemon marmalade etc etc), but I would NEVER put lemon in a nippy sweetie :-)

If I feel a sniffle coming on, I might have a hot lemon drink with a dash of whisky........ it might not help with the sniffles, but it makes me feel better :-D. If I have two or more I don't care.

Anyone want a recipe for whisky marmalade?

:-D
