Zingy candied sherbet lemon with hints of botanical complexity and herbal bitters.

This drink is better with the addition of dashes of aromatic bitters but this will add trace amounts of sugar.

I used a home-made simple syrup of water and monk fruit in a one-to-one ratio. Drink was excellent and very refreshing. Go easy on the bitters as they can quickly overpower the taste.
