Ingredients
Instructions
-
Rinse the fresh mulberries under cold running water and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine the mulberries and water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes until mulberries soften and release juices.
-
Crush the mulberries in the saucepan using a potato masher or the back of a spoon to extract juice.
-
Strain the mulberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl, pressing solids to extract all liquid. Discard solids.
-
Return the strained mulberry juice to the saucepan. Add granulated sugar and lemon juice, stirring well to combine.
-
Simmer the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally until sugar dissolves. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until syrup slightly thickens.
-
Remove from heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature.
-
Transfer the cooled syrup to a glass jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid. Store in refrigerator for up to two weeks.
