Home Made Peaches and Thyme Syrup
Tobie PuttockIngredients:
Makes a small jar of syrup
- 500g fresh or frozen peaches
- 4 sprigs fresh thyme
- 100ml fresh water
- 80g coconut or raw sugar
- Pinch of sea salt
Method:
- Place all of the syrup ingredients into a saucepan over a medium heat and cook stirring from time to time.
- Once the sugar dissolves, place a lid slightly askew and allow the peaches to cook for 20-30 minutes until the peaches are soft and the liquid is syrupy.
- Remove the thyme sprigs from the pot and pour the remaining ingredients, strain the puree through a sieve into a sterilised jar. Keep in the fridge for unto 2 weeks.
- To assemble, spoon some of the syrup into a serving glass and top with sparkling water.
I first bought a soda stream some time ago to reduce the amount of plastic bottle we needed to recycle. I quickly started making my own syrups at home, often with ingredients I had an abundance of and by doing this I can give a whole new life to these ingredients.
