Citrus Shakeups Recipes

LEMON-ORANGE SHAKEUPS

Steps:

• In a 16-ounce shaker, squeeze juice from the lemon and orange halves. Add sugar.
• Add enough ice cubes to fill two-thirds full. Add water to cover ice.
• Cover and shake. Serve in a tall glass. Garnish with orange wedges or lemon slices, if you like. Makes 1 serving.

STATE FAIR LEMON-ORANGE SHAKEUPS

Steps:

• Use a 16-ounce (or larger) cocktail shaker to blend the shakeup. Squeeze the juice from both the lemon and the orange into the shaker. Add in the sugar.
• Add the ice cubes and the water, close the shaker and shake the mix.
• Serve in a tall glass and garnish with a couple of orange or lemon slices if desired.
• If you just want a lemon shakeup, simply use a whole lemon and omit the orange.

CITRUS SHRIMP

Steps:

• In a blender or food processor, combine the orange juice and zest, lime juice and zest, olive oil, garlic and salt. Be careful with the salt - the shrimp really suck it up! Cover, and puree until smooth.
• Place shrimp in a bowl, and pour the citrus marinade over them. Let them marinate for 20 minutes at room temperature.
• Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the shrimp about 3 minutes per side, in batches if necessary, until opaque. Spoon a little of the marinade in with them for extra flavor while they cook if you like.
