- 1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries (about 8 ounces strawberries)
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup granulated sugar
In a saucepan over medium high heat, add the strawberries, water, and sugar. Stir to dissolve the sugar.
Bring to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes, until the liquid is deeply red and the strawberries are soft.
Put a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl. Strain the strawberries out from the simple syrup. Don't press down on the strawberries or the syrup will be cloudy!
Chill the strawberry simple syrup in the fridge for an hour or two until cold, then enjoy! Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up 2 weeks.
