Pour the lemon syrup into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top.
Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles.
Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
Process jars in boiling water in a large pot for 10 minutes; remove jars from pot and allow to cool.
Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight.
