April 2010

Please be patient, as this blog is a work in progress. I am actively searching for and adding more recipes so check back frequently and make yourself familiar with the labels/categories below on the right side of the page.

Fruit Syrup


1½ cups apple cider
2 cups blueberries, raspberries, or chopped strawberries

Place the cider and the berries in a deep saucepan set over medium heat. Simmer uncovered until thickened, 55 to 60 minutes, stirring occasionally and skimming off any froth that appears on the surface.

Strain the syrup into a bowl, pressing on the solids to push through some of the pulp. Discard the seeds and the pulp that doesn’t pass through easily. Use right away or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 weeks. Or freeze for up to 2 months.
