Homemade Strawberry Syrup
This simple Homemade Strawberry Syrup transforms fresh berries into a versatile topping in just 15 minutes! The vibrant ruby-red syrup has all the pure strawberry flavor without artificial ingredients or preservatives.
Servings: 1 pint
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries hulled and sliced (or frozen, thawed)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cups water
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice optional, for brightness
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the strawberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Let cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the strawberries soften and release their juices.
- Add in lemon juice if using and stir.
- Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing down to extract as much liquid as possible. (Save the leftover strawberry pulp for yogurt, toast, or desserts!)
- Let it cool before storing.
- Transfer to a sealed jar or bottle and refrigerate for up to 1-2 weeks.
Notes
- For a smoother texture: blend the mixture with an immersion blender or regular blender.
