Drink

Lemon-Lime Soda I

Serves 4 · 1500 minutes

Lemon-lime soda is a carbonated beverage flavored similarly to lemon- and limeade. This recipe originates from Flavorlab.

Suits: Vegetarian, Vegan, Pescatarian. Flags come from what shops, restaurants and cooks list and from the ingredient names. Always check the label. This is not medical advice.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole lemons, washed
  • 4 whole limes, washed
  • ½ cup (120 ml) white sugar
  • 4 tsp (20 ml) lime juice
  • Carbonated water, as needed

Method

  1. Remove the zest from the lemons and limes in strips, leaving behind the bitter white pith.
  2. Combine the sugar and zest in a container, and let this sit in the fridge for 24 hours. The sugar will extract the liquid from the citrus peels and produce a syrupy liquid.
  3. Strain the solids out of the peel and sugar mixture.
  4. Mix the peel and sugar mixture with lime juice. This should produce slightly under ½ cup (120 ml) of syrup.
  5. To make the finished soda, mix 1 volume of syrup with 5 volumes of carbonated water.
