[Sca-cooks] Lemonade in medieval Egypt

[Johnna Holloway]

I have turned up a juice quotes but the printed recipe
appears to have just appeared in La Varenne which is 1650's.
There's this mention for instance--

Many men putte þerto in somer þe Iuse of lymons or of orenges.
 [Many men put thereto in summer the juice of lemons or of oranges.]

Chauliac 2(Paris angl. 25 156a/b) c1425

I keep thinking I'll turn up something in that later 15th-16th century gap.
