Herbed Simple Syrup

Instructions

In a heavy, medium saucepan over high heat combine the water and sugar and bring to a boil, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved.  Remove from the heat and add the chopped herbs.  Set aside until cooled.  Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve and transfer to a glass or plastic container with a tight fitting lid.  Discard the solids and refrigerate the syrup until needed.
Use to taste in drinks, smoothies, sorbets, marinades, or simply drizzled over fresh fruit.

Makes about 3 cups

Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped fresh mint, lemongrass or lemon verbena
