Ingredients

  • 6 oz. water sparkling or still
  • 3 tablespoons yuzu syrup alt. 2 tablespoons yuzu juice concentrate + 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 ½ tablespoons fresh-squeezed lemon juice about ½ lemon
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ice to top

Instructions

  • Put all the ingredients in a glass and stir until the juices and sugar are fully dispersed.
  • Then add ice to the top of the glass, or pour the mixture into a glass of ice & enjoy!
    Pro-Tip: for a creamy yuzu lemonade, you can swap out the sugar for an equal amount of sweetened condensed milk (or sweetened condensed coconut milk for a vegan version).

Notes

Other Flavors: to add a dash of other flavors or creaminess to your lemonade, consider adding them to the yuzu syrup when making it, or add them directly to the juice blend before adding the water (if using extracts or condensed milk). This will allow all the flavors to combine completely and evenly.
Using Fresh Fruit: if using fresh yuzu fruit juice, I recommend using slightly less than the called-for yuzu syrup or concentrate, and adding a few swipes of yuzu zest.
