How to Make Restaurant Style Sweet Sour Mix
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Stir in ½ cup fresh lime juice, ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice, and 2-3 drops of red food coloring (optional, for a vibrant hue).
- Pour the mixture into a airtight container and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill thoroughly before using. Enjoy!
- (Optional) For a smoother mix, strain through a fine-mesh sieve before chilling.
