Scale
- 1 cup cane sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 peaches, pitted and diced
Instructions
- Add cane sugar, water, and diced peaches to a medium saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves to make sure it doesn’t stick.
- Simmer the syrup for 15 minutes stirring occasionally.
- Take the saucepan off the heat and allow the syrup to cool for 10 minutes.
- Strain the mixture into a large measuring jar or a bowl through a fine mesh strainer. Push down on the peaches with the back of a spoon to get as much juice out of them as you can.
- Pour the syrup into an airtight jar and wait for the syrup to cool before closing the jar with a lid.
- Store the syrup in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
Storing: Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Always use a clean spoon to prevent bacteria growth. The syrup may separate slightly because of the peach puree it has from straining through the fine mesh strainer. Just stir or shake it before every use. Remember that the syrup won’t last as long if you make it sugar-free.
Freezer: Freeze the syrup in a freezer-safe container for 2-4 months.
