Notes

Recipe adapted from Cooking Light Magazine.
*When I made this last time with lemon juice it was a bit more sweet. I also think I added a heaping cup of honey. This time it was more of a scant cup. If you would like it a bit more sweet, add a little more honey. Mine was a little more on the tart side this time.
