The history of citrus fruit in North Africa is very hazy, but it is thought that Egyptians were the first to create lemonade in around ad 1,000. This classic squash is ideal for a hot summer’s day. What makes it memorable is the sharp tang of the lemon skin. Adjust the amount of sugar according to your taste. Fresh mint adds an extra kick.
