Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup raspberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Heat the raspberries, sugar and water in a saucepan over medium to high heat. Stir occasionally. Use a fork to break down the raspberries, releasing their juices.
- Continue to heat the syrup for another 5 to 7 minutes until the sugar has completely dissolved.
- Once dissolved, remove the syrup from the stove and pass it through a fine mesh sieve to remove the raspberry chunks.
- Let the syrup come to room temperature before using or storing it.
Notes
- Storage: Store the syrup in an glass airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 weeks.
- Don’t thaw frozen raspberries. If using frozen raspberries, add them into the saucepan straight from the freezer.
- Don’t let the syrup boil. This can cause the syrup to become too thick.
- Save the raspberry chunks. The leftover raspberry chunks are perfect for mixing into plain yogurt.
