Tons of fresh lemons- what should I do?

So far I have made lemonade, lemon marmalade, and frozen lemon juice in ice trays. What can I do to use a lot of lemons that will allow them to keep?

You could infuse some vodka or tequila with them. I would try a sorbet or sherbet too.

Here's what not to do, which I tried:
Like key lime pie? Hey, let's just substitute lemon juice for lime juice. Result: bland, underwhelming - the store bought crust was probably the best part.

You could make lemon extract or do some lemon infused vodka
eta- sour mix
too bad Christmas is over, all these would make good gifts

fresh sweet and sour is way better than the stuff you buy in stores...

Lemonade. Lots of it.
Or lemoncello, lemon extract for cooking, etc.

My parents freeze them and then grate them whole and store in freezer bags and use in anything you would normally use lemons. You can take out as much or as little at a time as you need.

Lemon curd is one option.
You must have a Meyer tree? We give away hundreds to family for the holidays and face he same problem. All else fails, bring them to a food bank.

Juice them..Take the juice and fill up ice trays with them and freeze. Store in a ziploc freezer bag or tupperware for use later.
OK.. didn't see juice in the trays.. Make a lemon curd and top fruit for brunch on New Years Day..
