Homemade Lemon Squash Recipe:
To make a homemade lemon squash recipe without white sugar has been a long time wish for me. The lemon squash is so perfect for summer. You can store for 2 to 3 weeks and use. To make juice, all that you have to do is mix 1 tbsp of squash with one glass of water and just mix. Your lemon juice will be ready in less than a minute. With the CoViD scenario now including Vitamin C daily is highly recommended. Instead of going out to buy lemons every day during this lockdown, you can use this recipe.
Homemade Lemon Squash Recipe:
The base idea is from the hibiscus syrup recipe which I have shared already
Ingredients:
- Lemon Juice-1/4 cup
- Palm Sugar-1/2 cup (Powdered & sieved)
- Water-1/3 cup
Procedure:
1. In a bowl squeeze the lemon and keep the juice aside.
2. Slightly heat water in a saucepan and dissolve the palm sugar. Filter it thrice.
3. Now pour into the saucepan and boil till it reduces to half. Keep stirring occasionally in low flame. When it has reduced to half, cool down and filter again
4. Filter again and add the palm sugar dissolved to the lemon juice. The palm sugar solution should be completely cooled down.
5. Mix well and store this in a sterlized glass jar.
6. To make the juice , mix a tbsp of lemon squash with a glass of water.
7. Yummy lemon juice is ready.
P.S:
The shelf life depends on how you store and use.
Use only dry spoon .
The entire recipe has to be made in low flame only.
If you replace palm sugar by jaggery, watch for the syrup consistency.
Don’t heat too much.
We don’t need any string consistency here.
Don’t add lemon juice when it is warm.
Allow it to completely cool down before adding lemon juice and storing.
This stays good in the refrigerator for 15 days.
This can be given to babies above one or two years.
Ensure to have introduced all items before and eliminate allergies.
Always have a word with your doctor before introducing any new food to babies
