Lemonade Concentrate

Welcome to Fyreflye’s Follies!
If you enjoy today’s video, please don’t forget to give me a thumbs-up! If you enjoy videos featuring canning, dehydrating and (mostly) southern cooking, I hope you will subscribe!

In Today’s video, I will show you how I can Lemonade Concentrate for shelf-stable storage.

Not everything I do is USDA/FDA approved. I believe in “MY KITCHEN, MY RULES” and I do not think untested necessarily means unsafe. If you are someone who only does things by the book, then this video may not be for you. It works for me.

I am not telling anyone that this is the way it should be done. I am only sharing with you how I do it in my kitchen. I have done my research and I am comfortable with doing it this way. I strongly encourage you to do the research and do what works for you. The National Center for Home Food Preservation is a great resource, as well as the Ball website. I have left a link below. There are also several groups on Facebook and lots of videos on YouTube to help you get started and find information.

Feel free to leave a comment below. If you have a question, I will try to answer it or help you find a resource to get an answer from.
