HOMEMADE BLACKBERRY SYRUP
My family loves this syrup. I make it for breakfast whenever blackberries go on sale at our local grocery store. You can also serve this as a desert over sponge cake or angel food cake with whip cream or vanilla ice cream.

Steps:
- Rinse blackberries. Squeeze 1 cup juice from blackberries. This can be done by mashing them through a strainer with a potato masher. It's kind of difficult and messy. I just run mine through the juicer. You want the juice, not the pulp. I get little more than a cup out of a pint and a half of blackberries.
- Pour blackberry juice, lemon juice, and sugar into a sauce pan. Bring just to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 3 minutes.
- Add a tsp of fruit pectin to thicken a bit more. Pour into an air tight container (I use a mason jar) and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

This recipe is low in sugar content and it doesn't contain corn syrup or pectin therefore is much lower in calories.

Steps:
- Place water in stainless steel saucepan. Add sugar and blackberries and boil on medium for 10 min. Then reduce heat lower and stir periodically. (Optional: you can remove seeds through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a medium saucepan, using back of a spoon to squeeze out the juice. Although I leave the berries in tact seeds and all.)
- At the point where water is low, add jam and continue to stir into a nice consistency for syrup. Wait till cool then place in glass jar and refrigerate. Enjoy on toast, muffins, cakes or ice cream.
