Syrup of blossom or herbs

INGREDIENTS

1 part of water
1,5 part of refined sugar
2% apple vinegar

This way you could also make wild flower champagne, pretty cool! Recipe is coming later.

*never wash blossom

Preparation

boil the water add the sugar
if it is completely dissolved add the vinegar
cool the syrup until room temperature
add the syrup to a glass jar full of herbs or blossom*
close it airtight and preferebly put it in the fridge. Otherwise store it dark and at a cold/steady temperature.
the blossom has wild yeast on them therefore it's good practice to get some air out of the jar every week for the first to weeks (it could explode)
