Blackberry Syrup

author kim roberson

Ingredients

1 Cup blackberries

1 Cup raspberries

1/2 Cup water

1/2 Cup granulated sugar

2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine berries, water, sugar and lemon juice

Bring to a boil over medium heat

Reduce heat and simmer berries until juices are thick and reduced, about 10 minutes (less time if you want a thinner consistency)

Using a hand blender, puree berries until smooth

Pass mixture through a fine-mesh sieve using a spatula to press juices through; seeds and skins should be left in sieve and can be discarded if so desired

Transfer syrup to jar or pitcher. Cover for storage, and refrigerate between uses

Discard seeds.
