Raspberry Syrup Recipe

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries

  • 1 cup water

  • 1 cup sugar

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan, mix the raspberries and water. Heat over medium-high until it reaches a boil.

  2. Simmer: Reduce heat to low and let simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the raspberries to break down.

  3. Cool & Strain: Remove from heat and cool slightly. Strain through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a bowl, pressing to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.

  4. Dissolve Sugar: Return the raspberry liquid to the saucepan, add sugar, and stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the syrup thickens slightly, about 5-10 minutes.

  5. Cool & Store: Let the syrup cool completely. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

#Note from Baza

Customize the sweetness by adjusting the sugar amount to suit your taste. This allows for personalization and experimentation in your recipes.
