Thermomix Lemonade

Thermomix Lemonade is one of the easiest ways to start a Demonstration. Yesterday I had a go at making the Lemon Slush from the Basic Cook Book but the Lemonade wins hands down for flavour.
Place 2 Lemons cut in half into the Mixing Bowl with 500g Water and 100g Sugar. Crush for 2 seconds/speed 1.

Add remaining 500g Water, insert the Simmering Basket, hold it in place with the Spatula and strain the Lemonade into a Jug, add Ice Cubes and serve immediately.

The left over Lemon Peel can be used to make Lemon Marmalade if you add sugar and boil it for the appropriate length of time.

Latte Coffee

Tim made some brownies  yesterday using our own recipe that we have adapted for the Thermomix.
I decided to eat one last night with a Cafe Latte. Sam decided to have one too so I poured 2 mugfuls of milk into the Mixing Bowl and heated it for 5 minutes/ 70c/ speed 3.
I then added 2 teaspoons of instant coffee, (the recipe said 2 tablespoons), and 1 teaspoon of sugar and whizzed it up for 30 seconds /50c/ speed 7. I then poured out these frothy mugs of coffee.

The finishing touch was the cocoa on the top. I think that drinking chocolate would have been better but we did not have any in stock.
