Concentrated lemonade

Concentrated lemonade is a liquid ingredient made from fresh lemon juice that has had most of its water removed to intensify and concentrate its flavor and acidity. This product is widely used in cooking to add a powerful citrus touch and balance flavors, especially in sauces, dressings, marinades, desserts, and beverages.

Its origin lies in the tradition of utilizing the lemon, a citrus fruit native to Southeast Asia, which has been cultivated worldwide and used for centuries in popular gastronomy for its freshness and ability to enhance other ingredients.

Among its properties, its high content of vitamin C, antioxidants, and organic acids stands out, which, in addition to providing flavor, help preserve food and stimulate digestion. Concentrated lemonade is a practical and long-lasting way to incorporate the sour taste of lemon without the need to squeeze them at the moment.

In different Hispanic American countries, concentrated lemonade may be known by alternative names such as concentrated lemon juice, lemon concentrate, or simply concentrated lemon liquid. These terms are used interchangeably in home and professional recipes to indicate this essential ingredient in citrus-flavored cooking.
