Red Clover Syrup




Source of Recipe


Internet


List of Ingredients




4 cups red clover flowers
4 cups water
4 cups sugar


Recipe



Place the flowers and water in a saucepan. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for 15 mins.
Cover and leave to infuse overnight.
Remove the flowers using a piece of muslin, making sure to squeeze as much juice from the flowers as possible.
Add the sugar to the water (you can add 1/2 of an orange at this stage if you like) and simmer gently for a couple of hours, stirring occasionally.
When the liquid looks quite frothy on the top and resembles honey when drizzled onto a cool plate, it's ready to bottle into sterilized jars.
