Blackberry Syrup Recipe
Description
The Blackberry Syrup Recipe yields a syrup made by boiling fresh blackberries with sugar, lemon juice, and water briefly to meld flavors. The syrup has the characteristic deep berry flavor with subtle acidity from the lemon, brightening its taste. The recipe allows for either leaving the seeds and pulp for texture or blending and straining to obtain a smooth syrup, depending on your preference. This syrup can be refrigerated for up to two weeks in an airtight container, making it convenient for pancakes, ice cream, or cocktails. The short cooking time preserves the fresh blackberry notes while sweetening the mixture for use as a condiment or flavoring.
Ingredients
- 3 cups blackberry fresh
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Add blackberries, sugar, lemon juice and water to a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, and boil for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before use.

Notes
- The syrup yields about 2 cups and nutrition info is based on 2 tablespoons serving.
- For a smooth syrup, pulse the cooked berries in a blender and strain through cheesecloth or a fine mesh sieve, discarding seeds and pulp.
- Store the syrup in the refrigerator in an airtight container and use within two weeks.
