Method
Huckleberry Infusion Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Huckleberries
Rinse the fresh huckleberries under cold water to remove any dirt. Drain well.
- 2
Make Huckleberry Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine the rinsed huckleberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to bubble. Reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, crushing the huckleberries lightly with a spoon to release their juices. Remove from heat and let cool.
