Strawberry simple syrup is a bright red sugary syrup used in many drinks for flavor and color. If you have really ripe strawberries and don't want to eat them then u got make this syrup before they get spoilt.
 The strawberry syrup can be added to beverages mocktails cocktails u name it. Make a strawberry lemonade, strawberry soda or drizzle some on ur pancake or waffle. Go for a tsp or two on your dessert topping or ice cream too for that extra strong berry flavor.
