7 Reviews of Lemon Syrup

We slice the rind of 2 or 3 of the lemons (you have to use organic lemons or ones that are not wax-coated)and boil that with the sugar. When the syrup is cool, strain the rind slices out for a candy-like sweet, or add them to black coffee or espresso.

This recipe is excellent. We found that an even simpler method was to squeeze lemons then measure the juice. Use exactly the same volume each of water and sugar as there was of lemon juice and use Sharon123's method. This way the number of lemons you have and how juicy they are is the controlling factor - and it DOES make beautiful lemonade.

Great recipe especially when we have a glut of lemons to use up - I put this with soda water and loved it !!

This recipe is so easy to make and and handy to have on hand always in the refrigerator. I always like to keep a sugar syrup on hand and this will be a welcomed addition. The flavor is excellent and I know I am going to find many uses for it. Thanks Sharon!

So good and refreshing! This is fantastic. I simply diluted it with water and drank 'er down! Wow. I wasn't able to use fresh juice for this. And then it turned out that I only had 1 cup of lemon juice left so I used lime juice for the other 1/2 cup. Perfect. I loved it! This is going to be great to experiment with this summer! Thanks! Made for ZWT-3.

I love to keep sugar syrups around in the summer to use for drinks, and I can't wait to hunt down some new drinks to try with this! The lemon is a nice addition to the usual simple syrup. Thanks for posting!
