How to Make Berry Syrup
- In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Gently stir in 1 cup of strawberries (hulled and sliced), 1/2 cup of raspberries, and 1/2 cup of blueberries.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the berries have softened and released their juices. Mash the berries slightly with a spoon or spatula if desired for a smoother consistency.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice.
- Let the syrup cool slightly before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
