Grapefruit Cardamom Syrup
Green cardamom pods are both citrusy and spicy (think pepper combined with cinnamon and cloves) and they add a depth of flavor to the bright pucker of pink grapefruit.
Ingredients
- Peeled zest of 2 pink grapefruits (be sure the peel has no white pith)
- Juice of 2 pink grapefruits
- ½ cup water
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- Pinch sea salt
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 tablespoon green cardamom pods
Instructions
- Combine zest, juice, water, sugar, salt and lemon juice in a medium saucepan, bring to a boil over medium heat, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Add cardamom, remove from heat and let rest 1 hour. Fine strain, discard solids and funnel into a clean bottle or Mason jar. Label, date and refrigerate up to 2 weeks.
