Ingredients: 

4 juicy limes, washed & scrubbed clean
6 cups water
1 cup granulated sugar
3 Tablespoons Coconut Cream
3 Tablespoons Coconut Milk

Directions:

Wash limes thoroughly. In a blender, combine half of the water, half of the sugar, and half of the limes, then pulse 5-7 times. Pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a pitcher, pressing the lime pulp with a spoon to help release juices. Discard the remaining skins and pulp. Repeat with the other half of the water, sugar, and limes.

Blend the coconut cream and coconut milk into the limeade and serve with lots of ice and thin slices of lime for garnish. If the drink tastes bitter, you can add a little extra sweetened condensed milk or sugar as needed.

Ingredients:

• 1 package rolled, refrigerated pie dough

• Your favorite Stonewall Kitchen Jam 

• 1 cup Confectioner’s Sugar

• 1-2 Tbsp. Milk

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

2. Unroll pie dough onto a lightly floured surface. With a rolling pin, roll to be 1/8” thick. If you want individual pastries, cut dough using any shape of cookie cutter you like. If you want a giant pastry to share, cut dough in half and use one part as the top crust and the other as the bottom crust. 

3. Lay ½ of the cut rectangles onto parchment paper lined pans. Place 2 Tablespoons of your favorite Stonewall Kitchen Jam into the middle and spread leaving ½” empty on each side.

4. Top with additional rectangle and press down sides, crimping with a fork to keep the pastry together.

5. Bake for 15 minutes, or until browned.

6. Once cooled, mix together confectioner’s sugar and milk and drizzle over cooled pastries. 

7. Optional: Top with your favorite jimmies or spinkles for an extra pop of color and fun!
