Ingredients: 1
bottle
Spanish brandy
Peel of 1 lemon
Juice of 2 lemons 1/2
bottle
Dry white wine 2
ounces
Sugar Directions:
Put the brandy, peel and lemon juice in a large glass jar. Cover and let it stand for 3 days, then add the wine and sugar. Cap again, tightly. Leave for a day or two in a warm place to dissolve the sugar, then strain through double muslin into clean bottles and seal.
The authors note that Lemon Shrub tastes a little like dry vermouth and can be drunk with ice and lemon peel or mixed as Pimms with lemonade or sparkling water.
