How to make it

  • Instructions
  • In a large saucepan, combine the blueberries and 1 1/2 cups water, bring the mixture to a boil and simmer it, covered, for 10 minutes. Purée the mixture in batches in a blender or food processor and force it through a fine sieve into a bowl, discarding the solids.
  • In a clean pan, combine the sugar, the zest, and 3 cups water, bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar is dissolved, and boil it, uncovered, until a candy thermometer registers 200 degrees.
  • Discard the zest, add the blueberry mixture, and boil the syrup, stirring, for one minute.
  • Let the syrup cool, skim off any froth, and stir in the lemon juice.
  • Pour the syrup into glass jars with tight-fitting lids.
  • The syrup keeps, covered and chilled, for three months.
  • Serve the syrup warm over pancakes or ice cream.
  • Makes 6 cups
