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

    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.

        I have never refrigerated it prior. But you are more than welcome to! Just be sure to roll it to loosen up the juice.

        Should the lemon be refrigerated prior?
