How to Make Strawberry Syrup

  1. Combine 2 cups of fresh strawberries and 1/2 cup of water in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 10 minutes, allowing the strawberries to soften and release their juices.
  4. Line a fine-mesh sieve with several layers of cheesecloth and place it over a bowl. Pour the strawberry mixture into the sieve, pressing gently with a spoon or spatula to extract as much juice as possible.
  5. Measure the strained strawberry juice. For every cup of juice, add 1 cup of granulated sugar to a clean saucepan.
  6. Bring the juice and sugar mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  7. Continue to boil for 2 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface.
  8. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely. Once cooled, transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
