Of course, making a syrup doesn't involve cooking them, prick them 5 times and put a layer over a layer of sugar and alternate layers. The sugar draws out the juices which, in turn, liquefy the sugar. |
My mum always said to look for Vitamin C with bioflavonoids as these help you utilise it better - and rosehips are the "best" available natural/free combination. Old hippy, my mum
