Old Fashioned Lemon Cordial

I think I have a new summer drink...soda water, lemon cordial and gin. A very similar taste to a gin and tonic only slightly more lemony...this could be dangerous...the first one went down VERY quickly.


Home Made Cordial Recipe
8 lemons
25g tartaric acid
1 kg sugar
1 litre boiling water

Peel just the zest of 4 lemons with a potato peeler and place in a saucepan with the juice of all lemons and remaining ingredients and bring to boil cool the strain and pour into sterilised bottles and keep refrigerated and add to water or soda water at about 1 part cordial to 3 parts water.
