Lemon syrup is a fragrant and refreshing treat that comes from American cuisine but is inspired by centuries-old traditions of making sweet syrups. Its bright flavor combines the sweetness of sugar and the citrus freshness of lemon juice, creating an exquisite balance. The syrup is easy to make: freshly squeezed lemon juice is mixed with sugar and brought to a boil, gaining thickness and richness. It is used in various culinary combinations—from chilled lemonades and cocktails to desserts and cake soaking. Lemon syrup not only provides an amazing taste but also serves as a wonderful way to preserve the summer freshness of citrus all year round.
