AMAZING LEMON SCONES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix flour, white sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Whisk milk, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, lemon zest, and vinegar in a small bowl and stir into flour mixture until moistened; turn out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Knead dough briefly for 5 or 6 turns. Pat or roll dough out into a 1 inch-thick round. Cut into 10 wedges and arrange on a baking sheet leaving 1 inch between each wedge.
• Bake in preheated oven until bottom edges are lightly tan, 11 to 14 minutes. Allow scones to cool for 15 minutes.
• While scones are cooling, stir confectioners' sugar, melted butter, 2 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a bowl until smooth. Stir water into sugar mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, until mixture is easily drizzled.
• Drizzle glaze over warm scones.

GRILLED LEMON SHANDY

Steps:

• Light a grill and set it up for direct heat or preheat a grill pan. Oil the grates and grill the halved lemons cut side down over high heat until nicely browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile, grill the lemon slices, turning once, until nicely charred on both sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly. Squeeze the juice from the halved lemons into a liquid measuring cup until you have about 3/4 cup.
• In a pitcher, combine the grilled lemon juice with the simple syrup and the ice water. Stir until the lemonade is well chilled.
• Pour the beers into six large glasses and top each with about ½ cup of lemonade. Garnish with a grilled lemon slice and serve.
