Ingredients
-
Jalapeno Peppers, 2
Brown Sugar, 2 cup, (packed I used a combo of Muscovado sugar and organic cane sugar)
*Lemon Juice, .25 cup
Water, , 1.5 cup
Blackberries, fresh, 1 cup
Directions
Trim the stems from the jalapeno pepper and cut into rounds and drop (along with seeds) into a medium saucepan. Stir in the sugar, water, and lemon juice, and bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Boil, stirring regularly, until the mixture has reduced to 2 cups, roughly 20 - 30 minutes.
In the meantime, puree the blackberries. and then force the berries through a fine-mesh strainer, (I used a deep stainless steel tea strainer) and discard any seeds. Set the berry puree aside.
Once the chile mixture has reduced, remove from heat, and strain through a sieve into a heat-proof bowl. Press on the solids in the strainer to squeeze out any syrup, and discard the remaining solids.
Whisk the berries into the chile syrup and set aside to cool. Place in a jar, or smaller jars, and refrigerate.
Makes about 2 1/2 cups.
To make flavoured water add 1 tablespoon to one 8 oz glass of cold water.
