Then add the lemon juice and lemon zest and heat everything on a high heat until the sugar is completely dissolved.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Strain and bottle:<\/strong> Pass the liquid through a sieve to remove the lemon peel. Pour the syrup into a sterile bottle, preferably using a funnel. Once the bottle has cooled, place it in the fridge. This will keep the syrup for at least a month - if it hasn't already been drunk!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prepare refreshing lemonade<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To enjoy your homemade lemonade, simply pour a little syrup into a glass, add ice cubes and top up with cold mineral water.
