Tip
I use a vegetable peeler to remove thin strips of peel before juicing the lemons.
Tartaric Acid is different to Cream of Tartar, and can't be substituted. I buy Tartaric Acid from Woolworths.
UPDATE: Some Woolworths no longer stock tartaric acid. Try IGA. If you can't find it, it's available from shops that sell home brew and winemaking supplies, and I buy mine online. You can use citric acid instead, 1 teaspoon of citric acid is the approximate equivalent of 3 teaspoons of tartaric acid. DON'T USE CREAM OF TARTAR.

Love this recipe, sadly in my house doesn't last long, 3 kids a big glass each a day and I've now had to mare up a second batch, but at least they drink this rather than looking for soft drinks.

OMG - amazing! Made with only 2 oranges & slightly less sugar! Will definitely try with lemons and maybe lemon/lime combination. Has taken me awhile to find tartaric acid whilst travelling in a caravan. Luckily found in a small town IGA in Nanango Queensland 👏🏻. Was worth the wait 😋

Hi Maisey. You could definitely use less sugar, which would give a more tart result. Alternatively you could play around with monk fruit sweetener, which you would substitute 1:1 (so 500g of sweetener for a single quantity of this recipe).
Hi. Would I be able to use less sugar. Thanks

This is delicious! I make a bottle for my family weekly with our homegrown lemons. It’s the best tasting cordial that tastes like real fruit, Not like commercial cordials that have that plastic fake flavour taste not to mention preservatives and other nasties added. Thankyou for this great recipe! I’ve experimented with flavours and made orange, orange and passion fruit, raspberry, lime, mandarine and lime, lemon and lime.
Very nice. Will make this again some time. Good...

Hi. I bottled mine in passata bottles that were straight out of he dishwasher, then I boiled them in a large pot for about 20 minutes, making sure he lids were completely submerged. Doing this means they have a shelf life of many months (some preserving pages in America say years). If you don't want to do that you can just keep the cordial in the fridge. Good luck!

Hi Didi. I don't see why not. I have made a 50:50 lemon lime, and it was beautiful. Have a go and leave a review to let people know how it went 👍🏼
