Fresh Fruit Cordial
900g Sugar (any type you want. So far raw sugar has been the nicest)
500g Fruit (We have used lemon, passion fruit, orange, lime, pineapple, raspberry, blueberry
500ml Hot water
40g Tartaric or Citric acid.
Method:
1. Chop fruit
2. Put sugar into saucepan/pot
3. Add fruit and roughly combine
4. Add water and move pot onto stove top. Stir over a low to medium heat until sugar has completely dissolved (approx. 20 min or so)
5. Allow the mixture to cool and then cover with a tea towel or pot lid and keep in a dark dry place (eg. Cupboard)
6. Strain syrup into bottles
7. Drink and enjoy!
Play around with syrup/water mixture ratios to find what works best for you.
He says to let it sit 3 days stirring twice a day and that if using citrus you can half the acid.
