When happy hour rolls around, this Strawberry Simple Syrup is perfect for adding to your favorite fruity cocktails! Made with just 3 ingredients, it’s a mixed drink staple if you love strawberries.

Ingredients  

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 cups strawberries chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice optional

Instructions

  • Add all of the ingredients to a medium pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Let the berries simmer until the sugar has dissolved and berries are tender - about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the pot from heat and let it cool completely.
  • Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer making sure to squeeze any excess juice from the strawberries. Transfer the syrup into a bottle or jar, using a funnel if needed.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight bottle or jar in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • You can even get creative with Strawberry Syrup recipes by adding other flavors. Try a dash of vanilla for a warm twist or add fresh lemon, lime, or orange juice for a citrusy kick. Or basil for an herbal infusion.
