Notes
To make sugar rimmed glasses:
Lightly dip the trims of each glass in a shallow dish of 1-2 Tablespoons honey or agave nectar, make sure there are no drips.
Then lightly dip each glass into a shallow dish of 2-3 Tablespoons white granulated sugar. The pile of sugar must be slightly wider than the glass to work.
Carefully pour lemonade into glasses so the sugar doesn't dissolve.
