Notes

Recipe for a Blueberry Simple Syrup:

  1. Add a cup of water, a cup of sugar, and a cup of fresh blueberries to a small saucepan.
  2. Bring to a boil and stir for 3 minutes. Mash the berries with a fork, remove the pot from heat and cover with a tight-fitting lid.
  3. Allow the syrup to steep for 10 minutes. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve into a mason jar, screw on the lid, and keep it in the fridge for up to two weeks.
