Michele and I are still mid-remodel, so this easy, breezy,strawberry syrup recipe was a welcomed addition to the video schedule. I havemy friend Jen Yu from Use Real Butter to thank for that, since it was her gorgeous post that inspired this answer to all those “summer drink” food wishes I’vebeen receiving lately.
Jen publishes one of the best blogs around, and if you wantto see how this beautiful beverage should really be photographed, check out her original post. Jen's fine food blogging prowess is only eclipsed by herphotography skills. Speaking of which, don’t miss her photos of the recent eclipse!
I can’t think of many summer drinks this wouldn’t be greatin, but for me it doesn’t get any better than a simple strawberry soda. Give mea big icy pitcher of this blush brew, an Adirondack chair, a little SPF 100 formy bald spot, and I’m ready to happily take on any heat wave. Of course this isonly going to be as great as the strawberries you use, so bide your time untilyou come across those perfect pints.
By the way, the long-lasting aroma that will envelop yourhome is so enticing, so heady that the syrup almost seems like an added bonus.Michele walked in just as the berries had finished simmering, and couldn’tbelieve how wonderful the flat smelled. I hope you give this a try soon. Enjoy!
