Strawberry Syrup-Topping

• 2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries 

• 1/2 cup tap water

• 2 cups sugar
• 
  
• 1 or 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  
• 
  
• If your berries are large, then slice them before measuring.  In a large saucepan combine the strawberries, water, sugar and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a boil. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.  Reduce the heat and simmer the mixture for 5 full minutes.  Remove from the heat and cool.  Transfer to a glass canning jar or other container. 

Makes about 3 cups or 24 servings, 2 tablespoon each.

I made a few batches.

Love and Syrup.
