Mama Clericis Fresh Fruit Syrup Recipes

Steps:

• Combine juice and sugar in medium sauce pan.
• Bring to a boil.
• Let boil for a few minutes (until sugar is completely dissovled).
• Let cool for about 30 minutes.
• Pour into containers (I used an old glass syrup bottle) and store in fridge.

Steps:

• Combine fruit and syrup in a small bowl. If using berries, press them with the back of a spoon until they just start to break apart. For a smoother syrup, press through a sieve.
• Split vanilla bean, if using, and scrape seeds into mixture. Add bean to bowl.
• Transfer mixture to a bottle or another container, cover, and refrigerate. Use within 3 or 4 days. Before serving, the syrup can be warmed in a small saucepan over low heat to desired temperature.

Steps:

• Pour frozen berries and 2 cups water into a medium saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they have thawed but are not hot. Add sugar and bring to a simmer; cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Mix remaining 1/4 cup water and cornstarch together in a bowl. Add to the berry mixture and cook over medium-low heat to thicken slightly, about 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Bring sugar and water to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Let cool completely.
