If you're looking for a unique, herbal touch to top your ice cream or enhance desserts, rosemary syrup is a must! This surprising syrup combines the freshness of herbs with a subtle sweetness, perfect for pairing with ice cream made with the Ninja Creami, or even for cocktails!
Ingredients :
- 250 ml of water
- 200 g of sugar
- 2 to 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional, for a little acidity boost)
Preparation :
- Heat the water and sugar
In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring regularly, until the sugar is completely dissolved. - Add the rosemary.
Once the sugar has dissolved, add the fresh rosemary sprigs to the saucepan. Let it steep over low heat for about 10 minutes. The rosemary will release its aromas and delicately flavor the syrup. - Add lemon juice (optional)
If you want to add a little tangy freshness to your syrup, add a tablespoon of lemon juice. It balances the sweetness of the syrup and gives it even more zing. - Strain the syrup
Remove the rosemary sprigs and pass the syrup through a fine sieve to remove any herb residue. - Let cool
Let the syrup cool to room temperature before pouring it into an airtight container. It keeps well in the refrigerator for about a week.
