Instructions:

Prepare the Blueberries: Rinse the blueberries thoroughly under cold water. If you’re using frozen blueberries, ensure they’re thawed before proceeding.
Combine Ingredients: In a saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, water, and fresh lemon juice.
Simmer: Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to cook for approximately 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cool: Once the syrup has thickened slightly and the blueberries have softened, remove the saucepan from heat and let the syrup cool down to room temperature.
Strain (Optional): For a smoother syrup, you can strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any solid bits.
Bottle: Transfer the cooled syrup into clean, sterilized bottles or jars. Ensure they are airtight to preserve the freshness of the syrup.
Serve or Store: Use the Blueberry Syrup immediately as a topping for pancakes, waffles, ice cream, or yogurt. Alternatively, seal the bottles tightly and store them in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. You can also freeze the syrup in ice cube trays or freezer-safe containers for longer storage.
Enjoy: Drizzle this delightful Blueberry Syrup over your favorite breakfast or dessert dishes and savor the burst of fruity flavor with every bite!
