I am looking for a recipe for lemon squash the sort you dilute, we love elderflower cordial which I dilute with carbonated water and pour over icecubes, would like to do a similar thing with lemon squash....... it needs to keep for at least 2 weeks.
Thanks

I think there was mention of lemon in the elderflower thread wasn't there? Or a link? Or am I just imagining things?
Edit: It was mentioned but the recipe wasn't posted. If you look in the Cooking section of the MEGA Index sticky there's a thread listed under drinks which has lemon drink recipes in it.Hi, I'm a Board Guide on the Old Style and the Consumer Rights boards which means I'm a volunteer to help the boards run smoothly and can move and merge posts there.

I think it's just made strong in the first place. The recipe in the link looks straightforward enough and they suggest serving it 1-2 tbsp per glass of water.

delia's got a recipe for lemon squash but I found it had a really short life before fermenting, even in the fridge (like 2 or 3 days)0

or, if you don't mind buying something then rocks organic is great and costs around £1.75 a bottle but makes loads more than it says on it (maybe makes 7 litres)0
