Lemon extract is a concentrated liquid flavoring derived from lemon oil, offering an intense burst of bright, citrusy lemon flavor without the acidity of fresh lemon juice. Its flavor is powerfully tart, zesty, and aromatic. The extract itself is a clear liquid with a potent lemon scent, making it a versatile ingredient for adding lemon flavor to baked goods, desserts, and beverages where the texture or moisture content of fresh lemons might be undesirable. Because it's concentrated, a little goes a long way, making it a cost-effective way to introduce a lemony note to your culinary creations.

Store lemon extract in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat. A pantry or cupboard is ideal. Ensure the bottle is tightly sealed after each use to prevent evaporation and maintain its potent flavor. Lemon extract does not typically require refrigeration and can be stored at room temperature.
