sage syrup

1 cup water
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup dried sage leaves

bring all to a simmer (make sure sage leaves are submerged), and simmer for 10 minutes.
let cool and strain carefully to remove leaves and store.

*tested - the recipe is not good. will have to try fresh sage leaves. will also have to try steeping instead of boiling. after you bring to a boil, turn off heat after adding sage leaves, and let rest for 24 hrs. after this, simmer very lightly for a few minutes before cooling and storing.

Hi, did you ever make a sage syrup successfully? I had a drink the other night that had gin, sage 'essence' and something else. It was really good. cheers! sam
