Step 1

To sterilize the canning jars, separate jars, lids, and rims. Put them in a boiling water and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the water and let them cool and dry on a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2

Juice your Meyer lemon to make about 2-1/2 cup. Strain the juice in a fine mesh to catch any seeds or pulp; discard them.

Step 3

Mix 2-1/2 cup of Meyer lemon juice and 2 cups sugar in a pot over medium heat. Whisk the mixture and simmer until the sugar dissolves. When the syrup starts to boil, remove from heat.

Step 4

Pour syrup to the prepared jars, leaving about 1/2 inch from the top. Make sure to wipe clean the rims of the jars.

Step 5

Cover with lids and tighten. Put the jars back into the simmering water and boil for 5 minutes. You should hear the lid making a popping sound. That's a good sign that your jars are well sealed.

Step 6

Let the jars cool, and store in a dark place up to 1 year.

Step 7

To make 1 serving of lemonade, mix 1/4 cup of syrup to 1 cup of water. Add ice and enjoy!
