That looks close, but now I'm left with wondering how much is 'some sugar'? One cup, 5 cups, 1/2 cup? Judging from my email exchange, the version I was making added the chopped lemons to yeasty warm water, so some heating was involved… And just how much water?

I checked the Floralegium file you referenced, and didn't find anything more concrete than the above (and with my eyes, reading 12 pages of black ink on brown paper bag background was 'interesting' (I definitely am ready for new computer glasses!).

I'd probably have more idea of proportions if I made beer. But I don't like much beer, so don't have that background (but I do like citrus drinks-G).

Thanks for your help. I'm closer, if not there, to make some again.
