We're making syrup, these are almost ready! This is cherry and rhubarb, but we have some raspberry in the freezer we're going to make too. We got a bunch of berries from my in laws, they grew them in their garden and froze them. Now they are moving house and there is less freezer space, so they needed to prioritize  

Its simple to make too, put some fruit in there and cover it with sugar, as the juices melt the sugar you keep adding more, until it stops being melted, then your syrup is ready

Spring is officially *ON* in the Netherlands 🌸 Trees are blossoming, the water birds are showing off to their mates, and toad migration is in full swing. I for one am happy that the sun has returned and human life is moving outside again.

Today my friend Swan and I found this big-ass magnolia and decided to try our hand at making magnolia syrup. We used the ‘quick method’, which takes about 15 minutes but involves cooking the flowers (as opposed to the slow method which is simply soaking them in water for 24 hours and then cooking the water with sugar). Right now the syrups are cooling on the counter and we’re very excited to see how they turn out!
