Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 cups sugar


Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the strawberries, water, and sugar.
  2. Stir with a wooden spoon while gently smashing the strawberries until well mixed.
  3. Increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil, ensuring the sugar dissolves completely.

  5. Remove from heat and strain through a fine mesh strainer into another container, avoiding pressing on the berries to keep it clear.
  6. Allow the syrup to cool completely before transferring it into an airtight container for storage in the refrigerator.
