Persimmon Simple Syrup
Made with ripe persimmons, this fall syrup delivers soft honeyed sweetness with hints of spice. Perfect for bourbon, brandy, rum, and sparkling cocktails, it adds gentle depth that pairs beautifully with cinnamon, ginger, vanilla, and rosemary.
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Water
- 1 Cup White Sugar
- 1 Ripe Persimmon (Peeled and sliced/chopped)
