    Lemon peppermint stick

    Lemon peppermint stick is a Baltimore tradition that a must for summer fairs, fundraisers, backyard and block parties.

    Speaking of summer, you are going to want to check out these easy crockpot meals to make your beach vacation easier.

    lemon peppermint stick ingredients

    Ingredients:

    king leo peppermint sticks in blue tin container
    • Soft Peppermint stick King Leo Tin, King Leo Box, Bob's Sweet Stripes (bag)
    • Lemon - whole

    Where to find soft peppermint sticks:

    I bought the King Leo soft peppermint sticks from Amazon because I couldn't find any in my area. I bought this particular piece because it can in a tin and I felt they had less of a chance of breaking in transit. I had read some reviews that others would break when shipped. They are also individually wrapped so there is less chance of humidity taking over and making them a sticky mess.

    Bob's Sweet Strips are another option. They both work and everyone has their favorites.

    Instructions:

    lemons sliced in half on a bamboo cutting board
    1. Slice a lemon in half around the circumference. Some people cut the top third off but I find that the short sticks do better in half a lemon. Also, if this is a fundraiser you have a better profit margin if you can sell two vs. the one.
    2. Use a little knife to make a small X in the center of the lemon and press the soft porous peppermint stick into the center.

    My tip if you are preparing them for a crowd: slice the lemons and let everyone place their own peppermint stick into the lemon.
