CQ Peach Pineapple Basil Infused Lemonade Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 Pouch of CQ Peach Puree

  • 6 Hard Lemons - 28 slices

  • 3 Gallons of Fresh Lemonade (Instead of pre-made lemonade, create your own by mixing 3-gallons of filtered water with 2 Pouches of CQ Lemon Puree)


Cutting the Perfect Slice

USING A SLICER OR MANDOLIN ONLY, cut a test slice and compare it to the CQ Slicer Key/Wand’s handle. Adjust your slicer or mandolin until your slices match the thickness of the CQ Slicer Key/Wand. Once calibrated, slice up all ingredients as necessary.


Decorating the Beverage Dispenser

To set the insert in place, position a slice at each corner of the jar between the insert and the jar. Use the CQ Slicer Key/ Wand to push the slices all the way down. Decorate the rest of the jar using the CQ Slicer Key/Wand to position the remaining slices as shown in the picture.


Infusing the Lemonade

Using the CQ Slicer Key/Wand to measure the water level, fill the CQ Mixing Bucket with 3 gallons of lemonade. Add 1 pouch of CQ Puree and stir.

Next, place a metal strainer in the mixing bucket and muddle any remaining slices. This technique will ensure that no pieces end up blocking the spigot later.


Filling, Serving & Refreshing

Fill the beverage container to the top with ice cubes (about 10 lbs.) and add the CQ Infused Lemonade. To refresh, add equal amounts of ice & CQ Infused Lemonade.
