Homemade sweet and sour mix is so much better than any store-bought brand. It's easy to make and lasts up to 3 weeks in the fridge!

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup sugar
  • ¾ cup water
  • ¾ cup lemon juice
  • ¾ cup lime juice

Instructions

  • Add water and sugar to a small saucepan and simmer for 3 minutes or until the sugar completely dissolves.
  • Turn off stove and set aside.
  • Squeeze lemons and limes. Strain into a measuring cup.
  • Carefully pour the simple syrup mixture into your bottle along with the lemon and lime juice. Seal and chill!
  • It's okay if the syrup isn't fully chilled. You can chill it in the fridge after it's bottled.

Notes

Store in a sealed container or bottle for up to 3 weeks.
Use in my green tea or white tea shots!
