Learn how to make Homemade Raspberry Simple Syrup at home, no preservatives. Add to cocktails, mocktails, or pour it over pancakes and waffles!

Provided by Tori Avey

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 lbs raspberries
1 quart water ((4 cups))
2 cups sugar

Steps:

  • Rinse the raspberries clean.
  • Place the raspberries in a medium saucepan.
  • Cover with water and bring to a boil. Reduce to a medium simmer and let the raspberries cook for about 20 minutes. Skim any foam that rises to the top.
  • After about 20 minutes, the raspberries will have lost most of their color and the water should be deep pink/red in color. Remove from heat. Strain the raspberry liquid through a fine mesh strainer into another clean pot, separating the solid berries from the liquid. DO NOT press down on the solids to extract more juice; it's tempting, but doing this will make your raspberry syrup cloudy.
  • Once the raspberry liquid has been strained, discard the solid berries. Add 2 cups of sugar to the raspberry liquid. Bring back to a boil, stirring frequently to dissolve the sugar into the syrup. Let the syrup simmer for 5 minutes till the sugar is completely dissolved, skimming any additional foam that rises to the top.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Pour into a glass container, seal, and refrigerate. The syrup should last for several weeks.

Categories     beverage

Time 40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
8 ounces fresh raspberries, 6 reserved for garnish
Ice
2.5 ounces (5 tablespoons) bourbon, such as Bulleit Bourbon
3 ounces (6 tablespoons) lemon juice, chilled

Steps:

  • Make the raspberry syrup: In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, water and raspberries. Bring to a simmer and then remove from the heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Strain the syrup, pushing the pulp of the berries through but leaving behind the seeds. Discard the seeds. Chill the syrup at least 30 minutes and up to 24 hours.
  • Get ready: Prepare a cocktail shaker with a fitted lid. On 2 small cocktail skewers, skewer 3 raspberries on each and set aside.
  • Make the cocktail: In a cocktail shaker filled with ice, add the bourbon, lemon juice and 4 ounces of the raspberry syrup. Shake until chilled.
  • Serve: Add a few ice cubes into two glasses and pour half of the cocktail into each. Garnish with the raspberry skewers.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful raspberries: The quality of your raspberries will greatly impact the flavor of your syrup. Look for berries that are plump, deeply colored, and have a sweet aroma.
  • Use a combination of sugar and water: This will help to create a syrup that is both sweet and flavorful. You can adjust the ratio of sugar to water to suit your taste preferences.
  • Simmer the syrup until it thickens: This will help to concentrate the flavors and create a syrup that is rich and syrupy. Be sure to stir the syrup frequently to prevent it from burning.
  • Strain the syrup before using: This will remove any seeds or solids from the syrup, leaving you with a smooth, clear syrup.
  • Store the syrup in a cool, dark place: This will help to preserve the flavor and quality of the syrup. You can store the syrup in a jar or bottle for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Raspberry syrup is a delicious and versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of drinks and desserts. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
