Clementine Syrup

High maintenance...and so worth it in the end. A thick, intense syrup that can be a foundation for cocktails or a spike of flavor pooled in the bottom of a cocktail glass. Look at it this way...it's easier than demi glace.

Clementine Syrup

Juice of 10 clementines
4 oz simple syrup


Combine ingredients in a small saucepan over medium high heat and reduce until thickened, about 10 minutes. Allow to cool to room temperature. Refrigerate if not using immediately. If the syrup sets in the refrigerator, loosen it in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Yields about 3 oz.
