Equipment
Pot
Fine mesh sieve
Ingredients
1
cup
water
240ml
1
cup
blackcurrants
225g
1
cup
sugar
200g
Instructions
Add the water, blackcurrants and sugar to a pot over a medium/low heat and stir.
Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
Place a sieve over a bowl and carefully pour in the syrup to strain.
Allow the mixture to cool and pour into a sanitized bottle or jar.
Refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
Notes
Allow the mixture to cool slightly before pouring it through a fine-mesh sieve. This will make the straining process easier and safer.
Ensure that the bottle or jar you use to store the syrup is properly sanitized. I run my bottles through the dishwasher to sanitize them.
