Ingredients
1
cup
water
1.5
cups
blackberries
1/2
cup
sugar
Instructions
Combine water, sugar and blackberries in a saucepan.
1 cup water,
1.5 cups blackberries,
1/2 cup sugar
Bring to a boil and keep at a rolling boil for 1 minute, stirring often.
Reduce to a simmer and cook on low for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Place a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl and pour the mixure through the strainer.
Cool slightly, taste, and add more sugar if you prefer a sweeter flavor.
Notes
If using frozen blackberries, start with only 1/2 cup of water and adjust as needed. They will release a lot of extra liquid as they cook.
You can use more or less sugar. Start with 1/2 cup and adjust to taste.
The syrup will last for up to three weeks in the fridge. Do not store at room temperature. It will freeze for 3-6 months.
To use: start with 1-2 tsp per serving and adjust to taste.
