Raspberry Syrup

1. 1

   1. Add enough water to cover the bottom of a heavy based pan/jam pan, and add the raspberries. Bring to a simmer and cook the raspberries to extract their juice, for about 3-5 minutes on a medium heat. Remove from the heat and mash the berries with a potato masher to extract all the juice.

   3. Add the caster sugar to the warm raspberry juice. I like a ratio of about 350 grams of caster sugar to about 500ml of juice. Stir until sugar is dissolved and add the lemon juice. This should thicken it producing a syrup.
