Description
Very nutritious, wholesome lemonade. I read that the British had once prescribed it as a medicine. I advise you to try it, with a slight aroma of grain, can be both acute and sweet, with the scent of lemon. Quenches thirst and gives warmth.

Cooking
For lemonade, we need barley. On her broth, and we make lemonade. I take "barley" from the Mistral.
I make with honey, but it is as you like, you can add sugar syrup (2 parts sugar to 1 part water, boil the water and dissolve the sugar). You can grate 1cm piece of ginger.
Put barley in a sieve and rinse under water.
With lemons cut zest, only the yellow part.
In a saucepan pour water, add zest and barley.
Put to boil on the fire.
Bring to boil, lower the heat to low and cook, covered, 15 minutes.
While cooking the broth. From lemons to squeeze the juice, I had large lemons, I had enough juice from 1,5 lemon.
After the broth is cooked, strain. (Cereal is not thrown away, so I zest cut with a knife to make it easier to sort out from the grits, add water and boil until cooked, it turns a side dish of grits with lemon.)
Add honey and lemon juice, mix well.
You can drink both hot and cold.
