Izzy's Lemon Aid sets up in the Whitegate Farms Neighborhood for their annual 2 Day garage sale and helps to raise money for the local Kalamazoo YWCA Women's and Children's Shelter.
Can you tell me the brands of your flavors ,I m a young entrepreneur here in Africa just opened up a lemonade business but I just sell lemons ,it’s seems very hard for me get those different tasty flavors please help me out where I can purchase good quality lemonade flavors and thank you for sharing the video it looks tasty 😋
Thanks for the great question! We get our flavors primarily from a company called Finest Call. They make many flavors that are used in alcoholic drinks, but can be used for other drinks such as lemonade because the flavors do not contain alcohol themselves and they are shelf stable, which means they do not require refrigeration before they are opened. Here is the link to their website, I am not sure if they ship to Africa, but if you contact them, they may be able to help you find a supplier in your area: www.finestcall.com/products/ I hope this helps!
I think his prices are Competitive & Acceptable no matter if a garage sale event or a larger venue place, I much rather pay his $2 price for a 32OZ regular lemonade any day than paying $4 or $5
Great question! Licensing totally depends on the state you live and will work in, so check with your state laws and local health department in those. As far as other equipment goes, its really up to you. You can go as BIG or as small of a setup as you like. Here are the basics of what you need to make a lemonade: 1. SMASHER 2. Granulated Sugar 3. Lemons 🍋 4. Clean Water 5. Clean Ice 6. Shaker Cups (to mix wverything) 7. Serving Cups (32 oz) 8. Air compressor or CO2 Tank to power the smasher 9. Everything else is up to you! Lids, straws. Flavorings, cash register, canopy tent, the tables you use. Cash register, etc. You can cut the lemons by hand. Or use a slucer/wedger luke we do ( www.webstaurantstore.com/nemco-55550-8-8-section-easy-wedger-wedgemaster-fruit-vegetable-wedge-cutter/591N555508.html ). Just keep in mind that slicing by hand, may add the need for other guidelines and restrictions from your local health department. Hope this helps! If you need any further assistance, please feel free to get a hold of us!
As a business owner and if I was a customer I wouldn't want to drink that if I saw the water come out of a spicket in front of me.... If you already got sugar water made up on the side that's a different thing.
@@broccolihart1 thank you. I thought sharing my location would take away the competitive edge - my lemonade w io pl be at a lot al fair in October. Have a great day Off to lemon smash research
The smasher in the video was made locally for us using my plans. I gave it to a machinist who made nit for me. If you're looking for what we use now (tg his one is our backup) we use smashers from thisnguy: lemonadevending.com/
Depends on your state, city county, etc. For us in Kalamazoo, Michigan, a temporary food license is usually around $100. But there are other licenses available such as a STFU license, which is more cost up front, but cheaper if you're doing multiple events.
Sorry for the very late response. 2019 was a hard year for us and we did not do any events due to some unexpected occurrences at home. But we are back and once this COVID 19 stuff is over, you'll see us again everywhere!
Not sure how I have suddenly become a ventriloquist, but thanks for giving me a new talent! I can assure you (as the guy in the video) my lips were most definitely moving as I was speaking lol!
I love you main table setup with the cut outs and water station
I love this man! My wife and I are just starting out on our Lemonade Vending business.
Dan is a awesome dude, I wish you guys the best of luck and success!!!
Thanks Mr. Welch!
I'm thinking that also giving it a shake before you put the ice in will help the sugar dissolve.
Awesome job man, what a very nice drink.
Thank You!
Looks 😋😋 Delicious.. I'm thirty for some 🍓 lemonade smashers
Love the smasher, I can't do that in Nevada, they want it to be NSF
What type of water do you use?
I like your settings table. Where’s can I buy the table with the setting?
What happens with the seeds when you smash it? Do they stay contained in the lemon or float around?
Can you please tell me on flavored lemonade how many squats do you pour in thanks
4 squats minimum while you're shaking.
what system are you using to dispense the water?

Too cheap on your price. We charge $4.00 and $5.00
This was one of our first events and it was a small community garage sale....not a fair or large event.
I think his prices are Competitive & Acceptable no matter if a garage sale event or a larger venue place, I much rather pay his $2 price for a 32OZ regular lemonade any day than paying $4 or $5
Where did you get the mixing cups?
I've seen the exact same ones at the Dollar Tree.
I just purchased a smasher and I wanted to know what other things I need to get started including licensing

If you already got sugar water made up on the side that's a different thing.
They must storing fresh filtered water in a container underneath the counter. This is not from public tap water.
where would you suggest to dispense the water from then?
Why don’t you use simple syrup?
How much u sell them for
What are you using for syrups
were can i buy that exact smasher? how do you get away with not using a simple syrup mix?
I'm in Texas...needing that smasher!!
Do your research !! The competition is fierce. And the sugar dissolves in the liquid.(mostly)
@@broccolihart1 thank you. I thought sharing my location would take away the competitive edge - my lemonade w io pl be at a lot al fair in October.
Have a great day
Off to lemon smash research
@@Angela-vz4yq I sold yesterday and did pretty good for 4 hours. Easy Money !!

How much is a permit to sell lemonade?
Depends on your state, city county, etc. For us in Kalamazoo, Michigan, a temporary food license is usually around $100. But there are other licenses available such as a STFU license, which is more cost up front, but cheaper if you're doing multiple events.
😂 the way I just hollered lol
very cool
Will you be making lemonade at this year's garage sale (2019)>
Sorry for the very late response. 2019 was a hard year for us and we did not do any events due to some unexpected occurrences at home. But we are back and once this COVID 19 stuff is over, you'll see us again everywhere!
Nice 👍
Where do you buy your flavoring from
Fid you found out where to buy the flavors from
What size cups are those in ounces and how much sugar do you recommend thanks
They are 32 ounce cups and we use 1/4 cup of sugar in our recipe! Thanks for the great question!
What size lemon do you use?
icecreamlady driver We try to use 75 count size lemons whenever possible. Nothing smaller than that.
Thank for the quick response.
Where do you find a bulk shipment of lemons.

Not sure how I have suddenly become a ventriloquist, but thanks for giving me a new talent! I can assure you (as the guy in the video) my lips were most definitely moving as I was speaking lol!
