Zubereitung von Lemon Syrup

In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
Reduce heat to low and simmer gently, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved and the syrup becomes clear (about 2-3 minutes).
Remove from heat and carefully pour the hot syrup into a heatproof bowl or container. Let cool completely to room temperature.
Once cooled, stir in 1 1/2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This syrup will keep for up to 2 weeks.
