I would love to try these lemon cookies but ‘down under’ I have never come across lemonade concentrate – suggestions for an alternate? How much freshly squeezed lemon or lemon juice?
Hi Brenda! I have heard of some people substituting with cordial, or you could try lemon powder/Kool-Aid mix. Additionally, I also some just made a large batch of fresh lemon juice with lots of sugar. I hope this helps! (**credits to Google search**)
