Today, I’m excited to share my homemade margarine mix recipe. It’s super easy to make (with just two ingredients, plus water!).
However, the difference between a homemade margarine mix and the one you buy at the store is pretty insane. Sometimes store-bought mixes can be syrupy and raw. Homemade flavor Much fresher.
Totally worth the effort! Here is a short video I made that shows you exactly how to make your own margarine and margarine mix.
Ingredients for homemade margarine:
1/2 cup sugar
1 glass of water
1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 10 lemons)
Squeeze the clear lime juice into a bowl or measuring cup. I love this handy tool for squeezing lemons and limes.
Heat the water and sugar in a saucepan over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved. Let the mixture cool a bit before adding the lemon juice. Mix together and pour into one glass caramel or mill.
Refrigerate the mixture for up to two weeks.
