Kiwi Syrup
Description
The Kiwi Syrup recipe uses ripe kiwis peeled and chopped, then cooked with sugar and water to dissolve the sugar and marry the flavors. Simmering softens the fruit and releases juice, which is extracted by straining through a fine mesh. Pressing gently avoids including kiwi bits, keeping the syrup clear and smooth.
The final syrup offers a tropical sweetness balanced by the natural tartness of kiwi. It's versatile for flavoring beverages, cocktails, pancakes, or drizzling over fruit. Keeping the syrup refrigerated preserves its freshness for up to one week.
Adjust the recipe scale by halving or doubling it, keeping ingredient ratios the same. For maximum flavor, use kiwis that are slightly soft to the touch with a vivid green hue. If bits remain after straining, an additional strain can clarify the syrup further.
Choose ripe kiwis that are slightly soft and vibrant for optimal flavor.Press the kiwi pulp gently during straining to avoid solids in the syrup.Adjust the recipe quantity while maintaining ingredient ratios.Store syrup chilled and use within one week for best quality.
Ingredients
- 4 kiwi ripe

- Allow the mixture to cool slightly. Place a fine-mesh strainer over a bowl or jug and pour in the mixture. Lightly press the kiwis into the strainer to extract the juice, but don't press too hard or your syrup could have 'kiwi bits' in it.
- Allow the mixture to cool, then pour into a jar or bottle and keep in the fridge for up to 1 week.
