Zubereitung von Grandma's Chokecherry Syrup
- Combine 4 cups chokecherries, 2 cups sugar, 1 cup water, and 1/4 cup lemon juice in a medium saucepan.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, or until the chokecherries have softened and released their juices. Gently mash the berries with a potato masher or spoon for a thicker syrup.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly (about 10 minutes).
- Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth-lined strainer into a bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much syrup as possible.
- Pour the strained syrup into sterilized jars, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace.
- Seal the jars tightly with lids and rings.
- Process in a boiling water bath for 10 minutes to ensure safe storage (optional, but recommended for long-term shelf stability).
