Homemade Raspberry Syrup

Raspberry syrup is so easy to make at home and adds a great punch of flavor to nonalcoholic cocktails, such as the NA Clover Club.

You’ll need:

• 1 cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup water
• ½ cup fresh raspberries

In a small saucepot on medium heat, stir together the water and sugar until the sugar is almost completely dissolved and clear. Then add your fresh raspberries and allow to cook down (about 6-8 minutes). If syrup begins to boil, turn the heat down to low. Strain through a fine mesh sieve, pressing the juice from the pulp and seeds. Then decant into a clean jar with lid.

That’s it – easy peasy!

Raspberry syrup begins with a basic 2:1 simple syrup recipe.

The raspberries are added once the simple syrup is clear.

The syrup is nearly finished once the raspberries are cooked down.

Using a fine mesh sieve, the seeds and pulp are removed from the sweet and fruity syrup.

Finished raspberry syrup will store in the fridge for up to 3 weeks.
