Description
This rhubarb simple syrup is a refreshing addition to drinks and desserts.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups chopped rhubarb
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
Instructions
- Wash the rhubarb and cut into chunks.
- Add the rhubarb, sugar and water to a small pot and place over a medium/low heat.
- Bring nearly to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Allow the rhubarb syrup to cool slightly, then strain through a fine mesh strainer over a bowl.
- Tip: Save the rhubarb solids – they’re like a sweet compote and great on yogurt or ice cream.

Notes
- Great for adding sweetness and a tart flavor to cocktails or desserts.
- Use leftover rhubarb solids in yogurt or ice cream.
