Using strawberry tops for strawberry simple syrup✨

✨Instructions

❣️Simmer with sugar and water ( I used 1 cup of water & 1 cup of sugar it depends on how may tops you have )

❣️Store in airtight container in the refrigerator

Perfect for cocktails, lemonade, or even drizzled on pancakes! 🥞#strawberry #nowaste #easyrecipe #syrups #strawberryaesthetic

2025/2/11 Edited to

Making strawberry simple syrup is a clever way to reduce food waste while indulging in delicious flavors. The process starts by simmering strawberry tops with equal parts sugar and water. For stronger flavors, consider adding a splash of lemon juice or a hint of vanilla. After about 20 minutes of simmering, you’ll notice the syrup thickening and turning a deeper red, enhancing its visual appeal. Once it cools to room temperature, carefully strain the syrup without pressing the pulp to avoid cloudiness. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness, where it can last for up to a month. This simple syrup is not only a sweet companion to cocktails and lemonade but can also add a delightful twist to desserts like ice cream, yogurt, and pancakes! For those exploring zero waste cooking, this recipe is a wonderful step towards sustainability in the kitchen. Next time you prepare strawberries, remember to keep those tops—it's an easy way to make the most out of your ingredients!
