Lemonade Scones are a classic Australian recipe that have become increasingly popular over the years due to their unique flavor and quick preparation time. They are typically served as a snack or as part of an afternoon tea, and are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven with a dollop of jam and cream. The tangy sweetness of the lemonade provides a refreshing twist on traditional scones, and the dough is so easy to prepare that you'll be enjoying these scones in no time!

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 200°C.
2.	In a large bowl, mix together the heavy cream and lemonade until well combined.
3.	Add the flour and salt, and mix until a dough forms.
4.	Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth.
5.	Roll out the dough to around 2 cm thickness, and use a cookie cutter to cut out scones.
6.	Place the scones on a lined baking sheet and brush the tops with a little extra cream.
7.	Bake for around 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden on top.
8.	Serve with jam and cream.
