Strawberry Syrup
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cup sugar
- 3 cup sliced strawberries (fresh is best but you can use frozen)
- 1 cup water
INSTRUCTIONS
Mash the strawberries in a bowl and put aside. Boil the water in a pan, lower the heat to medium and add the sugar. Stir until the sugar is fully dissolved. Add the strawberries and cook until the berries break down, approximately 5 to 6 minutes but do not allow it to boil. Strain into a bowl or pot to cool. Cool completely before using or storing. Strain through a fine metal mesh strainer into bottles or mason jars. Refrigerate up to 2 weeks.
NOTES
You can also use strawberries that are a bit past their prime as they will breakdown faster.
