Red Wine Syrup
What to do with leftover, too old to drink, red wine and aren’t in the mood to make stew? Meg’s and I made a tasty wine syrup that we drizzled over coconut ice cream and topped it over these decadent chocolate chunk peanut butter cookies!
Other uses for red wine syrup: adds a lot of flavor drizzled over grilled stone fruit, added to salad dressing or over roasted veggies, or mix into a marinade for meats or chicken.
Lots of choices! We’re so happy to have discovered this wonderful new condiment!
Ingredients:
1 C red wine ( Used Reckless Love)
1/3 C organic cane sugar
Method:
Pour red wine and sugar into a small 3 qt. pot.
- Bring to a boil and continue to boil for 10-15 minutes, sometimes longer.
- Once wine boils and sugar melts, the syrup will take a bit to reduce and become thick.
- To know if it’s syrup, the sauce will stick to your spoon, not drip off. Be patient, it will happen.
- It reduces to about 1/4-1/3 C. This recipe may be doubled.
