Flavored with one of late spring's star ingredients, this simple syrup is easy to make and incorporate into your summer beverage of choice.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups chopped rhubarb
- 1 cup cane sugar
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Clean and chop rhubarb stalks into 1/2" chunks.
- In a medium saucepan, combine chopped rhubarb, sugar, and water. Stir to combine.
- Bring to a boil and then decrease the heat to a low-medium simmer. Continue cooking for 40 minutes to 1 hour, until the mixture thickens.
- Allow the rhubarb mixture to cool for 20 minutes.
- Using a medium bowl, cut a piece of cheesecloth large enough to fit over the bowl. Pour the rhubarb mixture over the cheesecloth and pull up the cloth to make a balloon around the liquid.
- Gently squeeze the "balloon" of rhubarb until all/most of the juice has been extracted.
- Store the syrup in a mason jar and refrigerate.
