Rhubarb Lemonade
2h 10m
Rhubarb is one of the only fruits that can grow naturally in our climate-zone. With its lovely acidity and fruitiness, it is an asset to our kitchen.
It's an old tradition to make rhubarb lemonade, and it's very popular in the spring, since it's the first fruit that starts to grow after a long winter. Every household has its own recipe and this is our way of making it.
Remove the leaves and chop the stalks from 3 Kg of rhubarb
Transfer the chopped rhubarb to the steam juicer strainer
Add 3 L of water to the juicer pot
Assemble the steam juicer and boil over medium heat until no more juice is coming out
Transfer the rhubarb juice to a medium pot
Add 1 cup of sugar and whisk to dissolve
Bring it to a simmer and remove any foam from the top
Add the zest from ½ a lemon and remove from the heat
Transfer to a clean bottle and refrigerate until chilled. The rhubarb lemonade is ready
Enjoy!
