A lemon drop is a sugar coated lemon-flavored candy that is typically colored yellow and often shaped like a miniature lemon. They can be sweet or have a more sour flavor. Lemon drops are made by boiling sugar water and cream of tartar until it reaches the hard crack stage. As the mixture cools lemon flavor is added. The candy is then rolled into long ropes cut into small pieces and rolled in sugar.
