Lemon syrup is a timeless classic! With its tangy freshness and vibrant intensity, it adds a bright touch to all your ice creams made with Ninja Creami. Perfect for topping, swirling, or even adding a refreshing note to drinks.

- 250 ml of fresh lemon juice (about 4 to 5 lemons)
- 200 g of sugar
- 150 ml of water
- 1 teaspoon of lemon zest (optional, to intensify the flavor)
Preparation :
- Heat the water and sugar.
In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring regularly until the sugar is completely dissolved. - Add the lemon juice.
Once the sugar has dissolved, add the fresh lemon juice. If you really want to intensify the flavor, you can add a teaspoon of finely grated lemon zest. - Simmer
gently for about 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the syrup thickens slightly. - Let it cool.
Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature before pouring the syrup into an airtight container. It will keep in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 weeks.
My Personal Tip:
This lemon syrup is a burst of freshness on yogurt or vanilla ice cream made with Ninja Creami. For a bolder dessert, try using it to swirl through berry ice cream or mango sorbet. And if you love homemade cocktails, add this syrup to lemonade or a gin and tonic for a tangy and refreshing drink.
