Common Lilac Syrup

Hi

Lilac is used in folk medicine, tea from the flowers is used to relieve stress,

relieves migraines, headaches and sore throats....but have you tried lilac syrup?

I had more picked flowers, because I also dried them for tea and made a tincture,

so I also tried the syrup from the rest.

BUT dont forgot leaves, bark, roots are poisonous, they can cause allergic reactions.

Supplies

• Lilac flowers - 100 grams
• Lemons - 2
• sugar - 800 grams
• water - 2 litre
• sorbic acid - very very little ( optional )

Step 1:

• 1 put the plucked flowers into a bowl. Those green stems can cause bitterness, so the less the better.
• 
  
• 2,3 peeled lemons -there is no need to peel them, but then it can be too lemony and the lilac flavor can be lost.
• 
  
• 4 pour 2 liters of water
• 5 infuse for 24-48 hours - -I waited 48 hours

Step 2:

• 6 strain
• 7 start cooking, add sugar , stir until the sugar dissolves
• 7-8 add sorbic acid optional
• 8 when it boils, pour the hot syrup into bottles.

I reuse ketchup bottles because it's a great way to help nature but also your wallet

• 9 I sterilized them for 20 min - optional
• 
  

Here they are...the last 3 bottles, 1 has already laid its contents on the altar of hydration.

• note: Some people sterilize, some people don't.
• the amount of sugar is adjustable,
• more sugar - more thick

Thanks bye .
