Make Better Cloudy Lemonade With Air Fried Lemons
Whole-lemon lemonade, also known as “cloudy lemonade,” is a more complex version of the classic summer beverage. Blending the fruit—peel and all—directly into the drink imparts a bitter, floral quality, thanks to all those aromatic oils in the zest and pith. It’s lemonade for people who love Campari—real sicko stuff.

Build Your Next Ice Cream Sandwich on Saltines
If I were to place saltines on an alignment chart, I’d have to go with “neutral good.” They’re bland enough to get along with everyone, but just salty enough to keep your palate vaguely interested on their own, without adornment.
