Caramel Lemon Syrup

Recipe #234113 | 20 min | 10 min prep | SERVES 8 , 1 cup (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: ~Rita~

This is a sweet, lightly tangy, caramel syrup. Easy to make. Uses: French toast, pancakes, ice cream topping, drizzle over drinks that are topped with whipped cream. Dip martini rim into it for added goodness, garnish a plate filled with apples and goat cheese with it, or drizzle over grilled fruits or meat toward the end of cooking. Stored in a jar for future use. Use your imagination.

    Wow Rita...Another winner. I used a homemade Vanilla Lemon-lime concentrate. It worked wonderfully and added a unique flavour to the thick syrup. This was quick and easy to make with great results. So far I have added it to lemonade, coffee, tea, fruit salad, steamed vegetables and pancakes. It was delicious, just delicious, I'm going to try adding it to rice next. Thanks so much for sharing.

    This is great!! Use it over grilled meat, fish, cake, fruit. Adding lemonade is better than just lemon juice. Remember to shake the jar if you refrigerate.
