Blueberries: Ripe blueberries will be large and plump and slightly gray on the outside. Make sure they are dark blue all around the berry- any signs of red could mean they are not ripe yet and will be too tart.Temperature: Make sure not to cook your mixture on too high of heat. Simmering allows it to keep moisture while creating the perfect syrupy texture.Texture: If you do not want fruit pieces in your syrup, you can use a sieve or strainer to make it thinner.Fruit Substitutions: If you want to make your syrup with bigger fruits like strawberries, crush the fruit or put it through a food processor before adding it to your sugar and water mixture.
