Chopped two fresh lemons on slices and add them in larger container of at least 5kg. Clean carefully all the flowers with cold water. It's better if you can use fresh flowers, but also it can be used dry flowers.
Add flowers, sugar and lemon acid in the same container with the fresh lemon slices and cover with cold water. Leave on room temperature opened and stir occasionally to help sugar disolving. It will need 24 hours. After this period strain through sterile gauze and stir into sterilized bottles. The most important part is fermentation after transfering in the bottles. Every bottle need to be covered with the cup but not fully closed, because it of the proces of fermentation.
Bottles need to stay little open in the next few day's( from one to tree day's) to ferment and get bitter and sparkling sparkling taste.
You can keep bottles in the fridge.
