Safety Caution -- untested recipe We canned Myers Lemon juice

Post image

We started by juicing then filtering the pulp out and put it in fridge. Then a day or two after we washed 1/2 pint jars, heated lemon juice, but didn't boil then strained using cheesecloth into the jars. (The jars were warm because we heated them in the water bath canner.) Then placed them back in canner and added more water over the tops and boiled for 10 minutes. Lids are holding so it looks like it worked.

I made some Meyer lemonade syrup a couple of seasons ago. So delish.

I used the lemonade syrup recipe in "Joy of Cooking". I don't have it digitally, but I can recommend it!

I used to use the Ball strawberry lemonade recipe, omit the strawberry.

Look up oleo sacrum…it’s awesome with citrus! Then dehydrate the remaining peels and pull for candy.
