Instructions: This recipe is for jalapeno lemonade and came with the warning "If this sweet, tart,wet, and wild cooler sits past 3 hours we are not responsible for the damages. It will get powerfully hot." Well, I have a pitcher that is 3 days old and is just now getting interesting. I think I will try some with a hab or 2 and a serano for color.

Combine sugar and 1/2 cup water in small sauce pan. Simmer until sugar dissolves and liquid is clear, about 3 minutes. Combine in pitcher with remaining water, lemon juice, and sliced jalapenos. Stir and refrigerate 1 to 3 hours. Strain or serve with jalapenos.

I didnt think this would taste very good but it is really a great refreshing drink. Especially after mowing the lawn on a hot afternoon or after weeding the peppers.
