What is the alcohol content in pure lemon extract equal to?

Pure lemon extract typically has an alcohol content of around 35% (ABV, or alcohol by volume). This is because the flavoring is made by soaking lemon peels in high-proof alcohol, which extracts the essential oils.

However, it's important to note that there can be some variation in the alcohol content of lemon extract depending on the brand and the specific recipe used.

Here's a breakdown of what 35% alcohol content means:

* 35% alcohol means that 35% of the volume of the extract is pure ethanol.

* The remaining 65% is water and lemon oil.

It's worth remembering that lemon extract is intended for culinary use, and consuming it directly in large quantities is not recommended due to its high alcohol content.
