Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Homemade Blueberry Simple Syrup.
Step 1
Start by gathering your ingredients: fresh blueberries, warm water, white sugar, and a splash of lemon juice.
Step 2
In a cozy little saucepan, combine the blueberries, warm water, and sugar.
Step 3
Gently whisk the mixture over low heat, allowing the sugar to dissolve completely—this should take about five minutes.
Step 4
Once the sugar has melted into the mixture, turn up the heat to medium and bring it to a gentle boil.
Step 5
Keep an eye on it and stir frequently as it simmers, letting the syrup thicken for around 15 minutes.
Step 6
When it reaches that perfect consistency, take the saucepan off the heat and whisk in the lemon juice for a bright, zesty finish.
Step 7
You can enjoy the syrup warm right away, or let it cool down before storing it in a jar for later use.
Step 8
This delightful blueberry syrup is perfect for drizzling over pancakes, waffles, or even ice cream, adding a burst of flavor to your favorite dishes!.
