Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 cup Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 0.5 cup Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon Lime zest
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar dissolves completely, forming a clear syrup. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Once the syrup has cooled, stir in the lemon juice, lime juice, lemon zest, and lime zest.
Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a clean glass jar or bottle to remove the zest and any pulp.
Seal the container with a lid and refrigerate until ready to use. The syrup should last for up to 2 weeks in the fridge.
To use, mix 2-3 tablespoons of the syrup into 1 cup of sparkling water made with your Sodastream. Adjust to taste and enjoy!
