Raspberry syrup

Directions

• Place the raspberries in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth.
• Place the water and sugar in a medium saucepan and stir over low heat, without boiling, until the sugar dissolves. Add the orange rind, increase heat to high and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside for 2 minutes to cool slightly.
• Remove the orange rind and discard. Stir the raspberry puree into the syrup. Strain the mixture through a clean sieve into a clean bottle and discard the seeds.
