Lemon extract is a concentrated oil taken from the peels of lemons, but it can also be synthetically manufactured. It's used in many cooking recips and home health products for its smell and astringent qualities.

Where to find lemon extractUsually in a grocery store. If you ask one of the employees they will likely take you to the correct aisle.

I have also found that stores like 'Bulk Barn' carry a variety of 'essences' which are much like extracts but more concentrated. Use less, but they work the same.

Lemon juice is made from the juice of the fruit. Lemon extract is a mixture of the lemon peel and alcohol.
