Whether you find standard lemons from the market or the supermarket or -even better- from your own organically grown lemon trees, take their juice and do not throw away the lemon shells but make this raw, fresh lemon syrup for many uses.
You fill a transparent glass bottle with this syrup, made of nothing but sugar dissolved in the acidic lemon pulp and no boiling is required! Since there is no extra juice, it tastes somewhat sweeter than sour but is balanced by the fine bitterness of lemon.
The lemon shells are acidic enough to dissolve up to half their weight in sugar, giving the syrup a strong flavor and vivid color without any additional juice, flavor or dye.
Use it in various dishes in your kitchen from a simple liqueur with ice cubes and soda, your favorite cocktails to cakes or where else you want to give strong lemonade flavor to your preparations.
Yours!
