Step 1

Pour equal parts sugar and water (½ cup each) into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves, about two minutes.

Step 2

Add the cup of blueberries and a pinch of salt to the sauce pan and stir to coat the blueberries in the sugar water.

Step 3

Turn the heat underneath the pan to medium-low. Allow the blueberries to simmer on low for about 10 minutes. Don’t stir them.*

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from the heat. Let the blueberries and syrup cool completely to room temperature in the sauce pan.

Step 5

Strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve into a sterilized glass container. Don't push on the berries in the strainer.*

Step 6

Discard the blueberries (or keep them on hand for smoothies or milkshakes).
