Razzleberry Syrup


2 cups frozen berry mix (such as blueberry, raspberry, blackberry)
1 cup water
1 TB cornstarch + 1 TB cold water 
2 TB honey
1/2 tsp maple flavoring

Directions
1. Add berries and 1 cup of water to small sauce pan over medium heat and bring to simmer. 
2. Dissolve cornstarch into 1 TB cold water in small bowl. Once berries have started simmering, slowly spoon some of the berry juice into the cornstarch to bring temperature up. 
3. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the pan, breaking down some of the berries in the process. Let simmer for a few minutes until it begins to thicken. 
4. Remove from heat then mix in honey and maple flavoring. Allow to cool. 


This method will also work for other frozen fruit, though you will need to increase water amounts for less juicy varieties.
