Camp tips

  • • In some recipes, a sugar syrup is poured into the glass first, then a mixture of water and lemon juice is gently and carefully added afterwards so that the two ingredients don't mix. Ice cubes and black coffee are added later with a sprinkle of lemon zest.
  • • Some European variations suggest adding rum .
  • • Keep perishables at 40°F (4°C) or below in a monitored cooler. Discard food left above that temperature for over 2 hours, or 1 hour above 90°F (32°C). Use potable water, wash hands, and pack out scraps. Never cook inside a tent. Check local fire restrictions.
