Ingredients
Rhubarb Syrup
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 cups sliced rhubarb about 3 large stalks
Remaining ingredients
- 1/2 cup lemon juice (from about 4 lemons)
- 1 - 1 1/2 quarts water or fizzy water
Instructions
- To make syrup, mix water and sugar in a medium saucepan and stir over medium heat until dissolved. Add sliced rhubarb and simmer on low until rhubarb is soft and pulpy, about 30 minutes.
- Strain syrup and reserve pulp if desired (to add to yogurt, oatmeal or muffins). Cool syrup.
- To prepare a pitcher of rhubarb lemonade, mix syrup (makes about 1 cup), ½ cup lemon juice (from 3-4 lemons) and 1 – 1½ quarts water (to taste).
Notes
- Actual calorie count is lower since some of the pulp (and sugar) isn’t used.
- The leftover rhubarb pulp is delicious mixed into yogurt. I recommend unsweetened Greek yogurt since the rhubarb mash is already sweet.
