Lemon Stick

in Baltimore, MD

A Baltimore lemon stick is a whole lemon paired with a peppermint stick used as a straw. The citrus juice turns the candy into a sweet, cool drink—an eccentric local treat associated with spring and summer events.

Did you know?

The peppermint stick gradually dissolves as you sip, sweetening the lemon juice and turning the candy itself into part of the drink.
