Description

Blackberry syrup is a concentrated sweetener made by cooking and reducing the juice extracted from blackberries. This syrup offers an intense, slightly tart, and very sweet flavor that enhances the taste of desserts, beverages, and sauces in various culinary preparations.

Origin: The blackberry is a wild fruit primarily native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, such as North America and Europe, although its cultivation has spread widely throughout Latin America. The production of blackberry syrup is traditional in many rural areas and is used as a method to preserve the fruit's flavor out of season.

Properties: This syrup is rich in antioxidants and vitamins derived from the original fruit, especially vitamin C and phenolic compounds, which provide health benefits such as cellular protection and strengthening of the immune system. Additionally, it is an excellent natural source of energy due to its high sugar content.

Synonyms in Latin American Spanish: Depending on the country, blackberry syrup may also be found under names such as almíbar de mora, jarabe de mora negra, or simply almíbar de mora. The word "zarzamora" is widely understood, but in some countries, the term "mora" is preferred to refer to this fruit.
