Lemonade
I have made this for my entire life. Every winter, when lemons are in season,, we would make an enormous batch. It stores exceedingly well because it is so acidic. You can mix in the syrup to your own taste. Don’t let anyone tell you how much is too much. You know yourself.
Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp Citric Acid
- 2 Tbsp Tartaric Acid
- 6 Cups Water
- 10 Cups White Sugar
- 6 Lemon Finely grated rinds
- 6 Lemon Juice
Instructions
- Add Citric Acid, Tartaric Acid, Sugar to water in a large pot.
- Bring it to a near boil, so that everything is dissolved. Give it a stir and let it cool for a half hour.
- Add the finely grated lemon rind and lemon juice to the pot, then let it sit for an hour.
- Put the syrup into containers.
- Store it as you want; freeze, fridge or cold storage like my family did.
- When you’re ready, mix 1 cup syrup to 4 cups water for lemonade, but adjust to your liking.
