How to Make Pickled Lemon Slices
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1/2 cup white vinegar, 1/4 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pickling spice.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat and let the brine cool completely to room temperature.
- Thinly slice 2-3 lemons (or limes).
- Pack the lemon slices tightly into a clean, airtight container (a glass jar works best).
- Pour the cooled brine over the lemon slices, ensuring they are fully submerged.
- Seal the container tightly and refrigerate for at least 1 week, or up to 2 weeks for a more intense flavor. The longer they pickle, the better they taste!
