Well, I finally did it.
Yep, I made myself some homemade boysenberry syrup to add to my lemonade.
And it was so easy and so delicious!
(Yes, I know I've been promising you blackberry syrup, but the farmstand only had boysenberries, so boysenberry syrup it is.)
Want to make your own?
Well start off with 2 cups of sugar and 2 cups of water.
Rinse the berries you are using. Add 1 pint of berries to the sugar and water mixture.
Bring to a boil on the stove and let simmer for a bit to thicken.
Then pour through a strainer and mash what you can through the strainer.
Let cool before pouring into a bottle or jar.
Once cool, refrigerate promptly and this will keep for 1 month in your refrigerator.
I added about 1/2 cup to frozen lemonade concentrate that I mixed up.
So yummy and refreshing!
Won't you join me? I'll have one waiting just for you.
That sounds so refreshing. I love fresh berries. I might eat them all before I could make anything.
