Monin Lemon Syrup, 33.8-Ounce Plastic Bottle (1 liter)

With fresh lemon juice and vodka, you have a terrific lemon drop cocktail

After we caved and bought a soda stream, I did some research on which brand was GOOD but also AFFORDABLE. Cue: "Monin".It's 12/22, and I just checked my order history. Since 05/18, my Amazon history shows 23 Monin orders.I buy 2-3 bottles at a time, which last us 3-4 months, at a guess.Most flavors will get 5 stars (we have purchased all of these MULTIPLE times):- Lemon- Lime- Orange- Blood Orange- Mandarin Orange- Orange Tangerine- Exotic Citrus1-star:- Sugarcane Cola- Ginger- Cucumber- Lemongrass- Watermelon"huh I don't remember buying these":- Passion Fruit- Ruby Red Grapefruit- PomegranateI'm probably not the best person to write these reviews, because I don't like bubbly water. My husband is the main consumer. I asked him to rate the Monin syrups, and he said he had no complaints. As you can see from the list above, he basically likes citrus.The PROBLEM is that I get bored buying the same old lemon- lime- orange over and over again, which is why I keep flirting with Blood Orange, Orange Tangerine, and Mandarin Orange. Honestly, those are all fine. But the day I ordered Lemongrass ... oh man. "What??? It has LEMON in the name!!!" I -still- have not lived it down.I also was the proponent behind the purchases of Ginger, Watermelon, and Cucumber, all of which I really enjoy. I was hoping to get some interesting boost of flavor to make my (plain) water more interesting. Instead I got SUGARSUGARSUGAR plus the aforementioned flavors. The Watermelon in particular just tasted SO bad: really artificial and way too sweet. My chef neighbor had warned me that she had never come across a good watermelon flavor, generally speaking; I was optimistic, but I was wrong. Gave it away in my Facebook Buy Nothing Group ... and that's saying something, considering I gritted my teeth through the Ginger and the Cucumber.I'm a bit perplexed by the Ruby Red Grapefruit, Passion fruit, and Pomegranate. I have no real memory of buying these; they were definitely one-and-done. Probably nothing super offensive about them, but I got scared of trying new flavors and reverted to the safe-and-sound lemon/ lime/ orange.- AM SIL

All these positive reviews swayed me to buy a bottle. Now I am adding mine into the mix.Very good. Sweet and tart. Lemony. Yet not too sweet. Some syrups can be overly sweet, cloying.. only made worse when the flavor is faint (then I end up using even more syrup, making it that much more sweet). This Monin Lemon syrup is balanced! I can taste lemony goodness.It can be used to make a very quick cup of lemonade, or added to anything that you want a boost of sweet lemon. I have added it to iced matcha green tea, regular iced green tea, regular iced black tea, just plain with iced water, and added to a glass of iced lemon water (lemon juice concentrate or lemon extract, water, ice, then some of this to add lemony sweetness). All within the past few days, haha.I think I will buy some more. I think this is going to be used a lot this summer. Just this week!Cheers!

I really like Monin Lemon Syrup and use it all the time in my iced tea. The syrup itself I give 5 stars to, but the plastic bottle does not use the pump that you buy for the glass bottle. The screw top is different in size. That is why I gave it a lower rating. I do not understand why Monin did that.

just what I wanted, fast shipping

Simple lemon syrup all natural. Makes great lemonade and added to tea.

I mix club soda with the lemon syrup for a very refreshing drink. It's not sugar sweet. Perfect for a hot day. Could add vodka

Received a damaged bottle and packaging was terrible! Leaked out leaving a sticky mess. And it’s not eligible for return or refund!!
