Sunkist Lemonade / Lemon Syrup / Sugar Syrup
Sunkist Lemonade
Juice 1 Sunkist lemon 3/4 cup water
2 tablespoons sugar
Put sugar in cup; add ice-water; stir until sugar is
dissolved; add Sunkist lemon juice, and serve imme-
diately. Soda water, White Rock water, or boiling
water may be used if desired.
Lemon Syrup
Mix 1 cup sugar syrup and 2/3 cup Sunkist lemon juice; strain,
bottle, and keep in the refrigerator. When wanted, dilute with
6 parts ice-water to 1 part lemon syrup, and serve from a glass
pitcher, garnishing, if desired, with thin slices of Sunkist lemon or
orange, Maraschino cherries, or sprigs of mint. Lemon syrup is
convenient to take for picnics or in the automobile

## Serving Suggestions

- Serve alongside ham or holiday dishes
- Strain liquid and serve as a sweet cordial
- Reserve 1 cup of liquid as starter to pass along to friends
## Editor's Notes
**What is a "starter"?**
This is a traditional "Friendship Fruit" recipe — a self-perpetuating fermented fruit mixture passed between friends and neighbors, similar in concept to a sourdough starter. Each batch produces enough liquid to share a cup with someone else to begin their own batch.
**If you don't have a starter:**
Substitute 1 cup brandy or rum. The alcohol approximates what a mature fermented starter would contribute. After one week of fermentation with the fruit and sugar, the mixture will develop its own active starter character.
**Storage:**
Keep at room temperature throughout the process. Cover loosely — the jar must not be sealed airtight as the active fermentation produces gas.
**Stirring:**
Stir every few days throughout each week to keep fermentation active and even.
**"Ready to eat" (week 5):**
Refers to the fermented fruit, not the liquid. The liquid can be strained off separately as a sweet boozy cordial or reserved as starter for the next batch.
**The "friendship" tradition:**
Recipes like this were passed between neighbors and family members along with a cup of active starter — the gift of the starter was the gift of the recipe. Without received starter, the recipe is incomplete, which is why the from-scratch substitution above is useful for modern cooks.
