Zubereitung von Prickly Pear Syrup

Clean and peel 2 pounds of ripe prickly pears, removing all thorns. Wear gloves to avoid getting pricked!
Finely chop the peeled prickly pear pads.
Combine the chopped prickly pears, 2 cups of water, and 2 cups of sugar in a medium saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the prickly pears have softened and the syrup has thickened slightly. Skim off any foam that forms on the surface.
Remove from heat and let cool completely.
Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth lined strainer to remove the solids.
Pour the strained syrup into sterilized bottles or jars. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
