#lmaooooo #my fave is that episode of white collar where neil is doing a theft #and the music they play over it is leporello's 'here's the list of all the hundreds of women my boss has fucked' aria from don giovanni #it's supposed to just sound grand and sophisticated but the guy is singing about how DG fucks tall women short women #fat women skinny women princesses and peasants he fucks them all! #and here's the numbers broken down by nationality! #he's fucked over 1000 women in spain you know!

okay love you all stay cool! have some nice lemonade! if you are looking for a new nice lemonade here's what I've been making lately:

for syrup:

3/4 cup sugar

3/4 cup water

4-5 cardamom pods

for lemonade:

1 cup lemon juice (or juice of about 5-6 fresh lemons if you're doing the high-effort version)

4 cups water

Crack the cardamom pods with the back of a spoon - no need to crush them, just crack them so the flavor releases better. Heat the sugar, water, and pods on medium in a small saucepan and stir until the sugar is dissolved and the syrup is at least a simmer (this should happen very quickly.) Remove from heat and steep at least 30 minutes. Remove the cardamom pods (strain if they really cracked open and you have bits, otherwise you can just scoop them out. It is not refreshing to be swallowing a cardamom seed on accident.)

Dump the lemon juice, water, and syrup into a large container and chill for as long as you have patience for (or just serve over ice immediately, if you're very thirsty.) Enjoy!
