Description

This Blackberry Simple Syrup is just as delicious as it it pretty! It's so easy to make and great for cocktails, mocktails, or lattes!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups blackberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup cane sugar (or maple syrup)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add blackberries, cane sugar, and water to a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Stir often in the beginning to make sure the sugar melts properly.
  2. Lower the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Take the syrup off the heat, stir in vanilla, and allow it to cool for 10 minutes. 
  4. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a large measuring cup or a bowl.
  5. Pour into a glass jar and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Wait until the syrup is completely cool before closing the jar.

Notes

Store the syrup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

You can keep the strained blackberries to use as jam but I usually toss them because the seeds aren’t too pleasant to eat.
