I missed cordial so much so after trying and combining a few, I came up with this one. It is similiar to Tisme's but extra fruit and slightly different method. Preservative Free! Perfect ice cold. I like to use those glass water bottles with the seal on them. It will last for weeks in the fridge.
Ingredients:
6 cups sugar
2 tablespoons citric acid
2 tablespoons tartaric
4 large lemons
2 limes
6 large oranges
12 cups boiling water
Directions:
1. Put sugar and acids in a large pot with a handle. Grate zest off the fruit, being careful not to get any pith and add to the sugar and acids.
2. Squeeze juice from the fruit and add to sugar mixture.
3. Pour the boiling water into pot with other ingriedients and stir over a low heat until sugar is completely dissolved. This will only take a few minutes. Do not boil.
4. Cool the mixture, strain and then bottle. and refrigerate.
5. Use at a ratio of 1 part cordial to 4 parts water.
