Como fazer 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.
