How to Make Fruit Syrup

  1. Combine 1 cup of fruit juice and 1 cup of granulated sugar in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Reduce heat to low and let the syrup simmer gently for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it slightly thickens. (The syrup will thicken further as it cools.)
  4. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely for about 30 minutes.
  5. Pour the cooled syrup into sterilized jars or bottles. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
