Homemade Lemon Drops (Page 2 ) | April 29, 2025

Instructions:

1. Zest and juice the lemons, ensuring you have ~2 tbsp zest and ⅔ cup of juice. Strain the juice to remove seeds and pulp 🍋.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, water, lemon juice, and zest. Stir over low heat until sugar dissolves (about 5 minutes). Increase heat to simmer and cook without stirring until the mixture reaches 250°F (hard ball stage) 🔥.
3. Remove from heat and add food coloring if desired. Pour the mixture into silicone molds or onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let cool for 30–60 minutes until firm ⏳.
4. If using a baking sheet, cut the candy into bite-sized pieces once set. Toss the candies in cornstarch to prevent sticking 🌾.
