Recipe by Veronika Sykorova

This Peach Simple Syrup is a delicious homemade syrup that tastes like summer in a bottle! It's easy to make and freezer-friendly. Try it in cocktails, mocktails, teas, lemonades, and more!

  • Total Time25 minutes
  • Yield1 1/2 cup 1x
  • DietVegan

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup cane sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 peaches, pitted and diced (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

  1. Add cane sugar, water, and diced peaches to a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves to make sure it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pot.
  3. Lower the heat and simmer the syrup for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Take the saucepan off the heat and allow the syrup to cool for 10 minutes.
  5. Strain the syrup into a large measuring jar or a bowl through a fine mesh strainer. Press down on the peaches with the back of a spoon to get as much juice out of them as you can.
  6. Pour the syrup into an airtight jar and wait for the syrup to cool before closing the jar with a lid.
  7. Store the syrup in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

  • Refrigerator: Store the syrup in a glass jar or an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. The syrup may separate slightly. 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 3-4 months. Defrost in the fridge for an hour or so to make it liquid again. Due to the high sugar content, the syrup never freezes solid so it's scoopable straight from the freezer.
  • Leftover peach pulp: Use the leftover strained peach pulp as you would jam and store it in the fridge for up to a week. Add it to yogurt, oatmeal, pancakes, or ice cream.
