Very Easy Simple Syrup

cookpad.japan @cookpad_jp
I ran out of commercial simple syrup, but remembered this recipe that I used to make.
There isn't much to this recipe. It's really easy so just give it a go.
Lemon is used but won't separate your milk tea or iced cafe au lait, so don't worry. Recipe by Yumi`s cafe
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Add the water and sugar to a saucepan and heat on medium.
- 2
Turn off the heat just before the mixture comes to a boil.
- 3
Add the lemon slice; this is to get rid of the scum.
- 4
Leave the lemon in for a while to eliminate the scum, and leaves the mixture clear. (Once the scum has gone, take out the lemon.)
- 5
Pour the mixture into an empty bottle and you're done. It's best to store the simple syrup in the refrigerator.

Sciroppo di limoni
Quest’anno gli alberi di limoni nel giardino di mia madre sono particolarmente carichi di frutti grossi e succosi. Dopo aver fatto tanta ottima marmellata (da non aver più spazio nella dispensa delle meraviglie), mi son chiesta in quale altro modo avrei potuto utilizzare tutti quei limoni che per nessun motivo potevano andare persi. Quando ho visto questo sciroppo nel ricettario di @mimmaciccarese, mi è balenata in testa la soluzione. Quale migliore ricetta se non questa per realizzare una genuina bibita rinfrescante fatta in casa per l’estate? Ma non solo! Questo sciroppo si presta per innumerevoli utilizzi. Vi do qualche idea nelle note🔸in fondo. Ho anche raccolto tutta la scorza che altrimenti sarebbe andata buttata; l’ho tritata in un tritatutto e l’ho conservata in un vasetto di vetro in freezer, pronta all’occorrenza anch’essa per aromatizzare un dolce, un risotto, o qualsiasi altra pietanza. Ecco, vi ho fornito mille motivi per provare a farlo perché oltretutto la sua preparazione è facilissima!Follow me, Sweetly Elvie on Instagram, Cookpad and Facebook 👩🏻🍳🍋#sciroppodilimoni #estate #bibitafresca #lemonsodahomemade #limoni #estate

I learnt to make a quick simple sponge whilst I was at university. It tastes good and like any sponge you can adapt it to your needs.Full of flavour but as it is cooked in a microwave rather than an oven it looks a bit anaemic.

Easy Homemade 'Kuromitsu' Brown Sugar Syrup
In the summertime, I often want to eat kanten (agar-agar) jellies.I received lump brown sugar as a gift, so I referred to a cookbook from Okinawa to make this syrup.When reducing the syrup, take care not to let it boil over. If you let the syrup burn, it will become bitter, so keep mixing as you simmer.For people who wrote in concerned about the syrup crystallizing while chilling, the syrup was OK for 10 days. For an easy to make amount. Recipe by tearstar


Apricots In Syrup
I happened to find some fresh apricots at the supermarket one day and challenged myself to preserve them in syrup. It's been 4 years since my first attempt. The first year I just made a small amount, and perhaps because of that it was a big success. The next year I reduced the sugar, but that version wasn't sweet enough, so I took the syrup out of the jar and added more sugar. On the 3rd year I wasn't able to seal the top on properly, so I had to throw away half of the 5 kilos I'd preserved.Make sure to pack the jar tightly. If you put the apricots in neatly, there will be no gaps after adding the syrup. 200 g of sugar and 200 ml of water is not enough sometimes, so I've listed a generous amount of syrup ingredients.The white liquor is used as insurance against spoilage if you aren't able to achieve a proper vacuum seal.

Πορτοκαλάδα συμπυκνωμένη
Πορτοκαλάδα σιρόπι χωρίς συντηρητικά, χωρίς πρόσθετα, με φρέσκο χυμό πορτοκαλιών που όταν αραιώνετε με νερό ή σόδα ξεπερνά την γεύση της εμπορικής πορτοκαλάδας.Λίγα μυστικά ακόμαΓίνεται επίσης ένα ωραίο ποτό συμπληρώνοντας με βότκα, ούζο, ρούμι κ.ά.Διατηρείται εως και 2 μήνες στο ψυγείο.Αν τη θέλετε για περισσότερο χρόνο διατηρείται στην κατάψυξη.Το ίδιο γίνετε και λεμονάδα με το χυμό λεμονιών το μόνο που προσθέτω είναι 1 βανίλια την οποία μπορείτε να παραλείψετε. Αν τυχόν ζαχαρώσει το σιρόπι μετά τον βρασμό δεν υπάρχει πρόβλημα ρίχνεται τον χυμό και ανακατεύετε. Τη συνταγή μου την έδωσε μια γιαγιά πολίτισσα.


Lavender Honey Syrup
This syrup is a crowd pleaser. The flavor of the fresh lavender pairs wonderfully with the floral notes in the raw honey for a summer beverage that is delightfully reminiscent of running through a meadow... in your mouth. It goes great in iced coffee, lemonade, champagne, kombucha or a creative summer cocktail. It also makes a great gift. Enjoy!

Homemade Maple Syrup
An old friend of mine showed me this recipe many years ago and I've hardly bought syrup since! So simple and easy to make in varying quantities. Easily double, triple, or halve the recipe by using the general rule: 1 part water, 2 parts sugar. For my family breakfasts I make a large batch and keep the leftovers.


Lavender Vanilla Syrup
This is a great spring and summer flavor. The sweet vanilla and fresh fragrant lavender are a treat for the senses. This can be mixed into coffee (iced or hot) or lemonade. Or get adventurous and add it to cocktails or champagne. It is a great diy gift when bottled nicely.
