Lemon syrup (was SC - o

[Crystal A. Isaac]

Modern Lemonade is not documented in Europe untill c.1651 when it
appears in La Varrene, a French cookbook widely translated into other
European lanugages including English. La Varrene's version inlcudes
other flavoring besides sugar and lemons, mostly flower petals, jasmine
and such.

The Syrup of Lemon is resonable for European personas if you can accept
the reasoning presented in the silly string about how sekanajabin got to
Ireland suggested earlier this month.
