Orange And Lemon Syrup Recipe - Cooking Index
| 3 | Oranges - (for 1 1/2 cups juice) | |
| 1 | Regular or Meyer lemon - (or 2 small) (large) | |
| 3/4 cup | 148g / 5.2oz | Sugar |
Wash the oranges and lemons carefully with warm water. Zest them, then cut them in half and squeeze all the juice. Mix together the juice, zest and sugar in a non-metallic saucepan. Bring to a boil. Just when the mixture reaches a boil, remove it from the heat and allow it to cool. Stir occasionally.
When completely cool, about 2 hours, strain the syrup into clean, sterilized jars. Store in the refrigerator. Add by the teaspoon, to taste, to iced tea. This syrup goes especially well with smoky teas.
This recipe yields about 1 1/2 cups.
