raspberry simple syrup recipe
- Total Time: 52 minutes
- Yield: Approximately 3.5 cups or 8 servings 1x
- Diet: Vegetarian
Description
A vibrant ruby-colored simple syrup made from fresh raspberries and dried hibiscus flowers, offering a floral tartness perfect for drinks and cocktails.
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries, ripe
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 cups filtered water
- 0.25 cup dried hibiscus flowers, food grade
Instructions
- Dissolve Sugar in Water: Combine the granulated sugar and filtered water in a medium saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until all the sugar crystals completely dissolve.
- Simmer Berries and Hibiscus: Add the fresh raspberries and dried hibiscus flowers to the saucepan. Gently increase the heat to medium and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer (small bubbles). Simmer for 10-12 minutes, gently mashing the raspberries to release their juices.
- Steep for Flavor Infusion: Remove from heat and cover the saucepan. Let the syrup steep for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour, to allow the hibiscus and raspberry flavors to fully infuse.
- Strain the Syrup: Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a heatproof bowl. Press gently on the solids with the back of a spoon to extract remaining liquid, taking care not to push too hard to avoid cloudiness. Discard strained solids.
- Cool and Store Syrup: Allow the syrup to cool completely to room temperature. Pour into a clean, airtight glass bottle or jar. Store refrigerated for up to 2-3 weeks, or freeze in ice cube trays for longer storage.
Notes
Store refrigerated for up to 2-3 weeks. For long-term storage, freeze in ice cube trays. To keep the syrup clear, avoid pushing too hard on the solids during straining.
