Botanical Armor Syrup: Lemon

Description

Organic lemon peel, extracted in vegetable glycerin over a full 72 hours for a bright, tart, and naturally sweet flavor. The slow, unheated steep pulls oil and color out of the peel itself while leaving behind the bitterness of the white pith underneath, so the result is sunny and citrus-forward rather than sharp or soapy the way some bottled lemon extracts can taste. A dropperful wakes up sparkling water, iced tea, or a simple vinaigrette.

Ingredients

Vegetable glycerin (USP), Organic lemon peel, Filtered water

Our Process

Dried organic lemon peel steeps in food-grade vegetable glycerin and filtered water for a full 72 hours, gently agitated at intervals to draw out flavor and color without any heat or alcohol. The peel is then pressed and strained by hand, and the extract rests for a day before bottling so any fine sediment can settle out.

How to Use

For best results, take 1 teaspoon first thing in the morning on an empty stomach. It can also be added a drop at a time to hot tea, sparkling water, lemonade, or a vinaigrette in place of fresh juice. Shake well before each use, since natural settling is normal for an alcohol-free extract. Store in a cool, dark place; refrigerate after opening for the longest shelf life.
