Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons water or orange juice
- 12 ounces fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1 tablespoon Chambord, Framboise, or Grand Marnier liqueur (optional)
Instructions
- Combine sugar and water (or orange juice) in a 1 cup (or larger) microwave-safe cup or bowl. Stir to combine. The mixture will be very thick.
- Cook in the microwave on high power for two minutes. Stir for 5 to 10 seconds to ensure that the sugar crystals are dissolved.
- Combine frozen (or fresh) raspberries and hot syrup in a blender container. Blend until the mixture is smooth and pureed. Note: If you’re using fresh berries, you may need to add an extra tablespoon of liquid while bending.
- Pour puree through a fine-mesh strainer set over a medium-sized bowl. Stir and push on the solids with the back of a rubber spatula until all of the liquid has been extracted. This will take several minutes as the mixture will be thick.
- Discard the seeds. Add the liqueur, if using and stir to combine.
- Store in the refrigerator for 5 to 7 days, or in the freezer for 2 to 3 months.
