Ingredients

  • 7 Lemons
  • 2 ¾ cups Granulated sugar
  • Baking soda for scrubbing optional

Instructions

  • Wash the lemons thoroughly by scrubbing with baking soda.
  • Cut the lemons into ¼-inch slices. Discard the end slices and remove the seeds.
  • In a clean, air-tight jar, layer the lemon slices and sugar.
  • Let the sugar dissolve at room temperature for 24 hours. Stir every 6 hours to dissolve the sugar that settles. Once all the sugar has dissolved, refrigerate. The syrup will be good for 3 months.
  • Add a couple spoonfuls of syrup with lemon slices to cold water or seltzer to make lemonade or sparkling lemonade.
