Cooking Scones? These are all the tricks the Country Women's Association (CWA) never passed on to Master Chef contestants.
Forget Lemonade/Sprite. You don't know what's in that crap. Scones are meant to taste fluffy and buttery, not like a can of soda, saccharin, sucralose or corn syrup with added preservatives and colourings!
Traditional scones have no sugar. If you're going to add sugar you need to balance the sweetness. When I use sugar to taste, I like to use just a little bit of a sharp dry cheese to balance the flavour, an Italian Parmiagiana Cheese for example. If you dont have it, cut back on the sugar. Whatever you do, don't use cheddar or something. Glug glug glug.
Oh.... and BTW before you ask.. .. "self raising" flour is plain flour with the baking soda already added to it.
Good luck.
Really really annoying to watch, but fantastic recipe ^.^
