Lemon Rice

Lemonade
Rice

In a rice cooker, pour in the desired amount of rice.  Replace water with lemonade and pour in the appropriate amount of juice.  Let the rice cook.  If the rice does not have a strong enough flavor of lemon after it is cooked, add freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste.  If desired, add lemon zest too.
