Blueberry Simple Syrup

What is a simple syrup?

Simple syrup is exactly what it sounds like. A simple combination of sugar and water, cooked until the sugar dissolves, cooled, and used to sweeten cocktails and other drinks. You can buy simple syrup, plain, and in a variety of flavors, at any grocery store. However, it’s really easy to make your own homemade simple syrup. Why not save your cash and make homemade syrup in minutes?

The basic simple syrup recipe is equal parts water and sugar. For this blueberry simple syrup, we are using that 1:1 ratio of water and sugar, and then we’re adding blueberries. The result is a delicious burst of fruity flavor to elevate your favorite drinks.
