10 Lemons and NO Zest

[Faraway11]

My husband had a little cooking adventure this morning that involved the zest of 10 lemons.
So now, we are left with the juice of 10 lemons. What can I do with these suckers?
My ideas thus far have been lemonade and lots and lots of booze-filled cocktails. I was thinking about some kind of ceviche, but I'm not certain how using just lemon and no lime or orange juice will effect the outcome. Any suggestions? I've been searching through every cookbook in the house, but everything I've seen calls for some amount of the zest in addition to the juice.

Squeeze them and leave in a jar in the fridge. Make sure you label it lemon juice.. someone unsuspecting may decide to drink it.

Actually, I squeeze about 10-20 lemons a week and put into 2 old balsamic vinegar bottles (Fini). Yes, I said weekly because we use alot of lemon juice in our house! And I put them in the fridge and you get perfectly fresh lemon juice at your fingertips all the time.

I'm just curious--what did your husband make that involved the zest of 10 lemons? The fact that you termed it "a little cooking adventure" makes me think there may be an interesting story here. ;)

I like the idea for freezing cubes of lemon juice. If you've got a cold or flu, plunking a lemon cube, boiling water, and honey in a big mug is far more appealing than squeezing the lemon and straining out the seeds.

You forgot the brandy!

lemonade? that would only require the juice.

I'm sure lemon curd must be there, but I'll mention it since I made some at least a month ago, and it still seems to be "fine".

You could freeze the juice in icetrays for future recipes.
