Lemon Syrup is more useful than you think. With its smooth texture and not-to-sweet flavor, it’s a great ingredient in more than just drinks. Those sorts of things are outside the scope of this site, of course, so I’m going to stick with drink based applications, starting tomorrow.

Lemon Syrup - Recipe:

• 2 lemons, pitted and cut into small wedges
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup water

Put the lemon wedges, sugar, and water into a saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Cool and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
