Ingredients :
- 500 g ripe strawberries
- 300 g of sugar
- 200 ml of water
- Juice of half a lemon
Preparation :
- Prepare your strawberries
Wash the strawberries, hull them, then cut them into pieces. The scent of fresh strawberries is like summer in your kitchen! - Heat everything up.
Put the strawberries, sugar, and water in a saucepan. Let it simmer over medium heat until the strawberries become soft and juicy (about 10 minutes). - Add the lemon juice
A little lemon to balance everything, and presto, you prevent your syrup from becoming too sweet. - Blend and sieve
Use an immersion blender to achieve a smooth texture. If you prefer a syrup without chunks, pass it through a sieve. - Let it thicken.
Return the syrup to the heat for a few minutes to thicken slightly. Once cooled, pour it into a pretty bottle (yes, presentation always matters!).
Ninja Creami Tip:
This homemade strawberry syrup goes perfectly with vanilla or coconut ice cream made with Ninja Creami.
