Rhubarb simple syrup is a great way to preserve this tart spring perennial. Create a delicious rhubarb syrup cocktail, to flavor water kefir or kombucha, and over pancakes or waffles.
When fresh rhubarb is not available, frozen can be used in its place. Also, keep in mind, rhubarb stalks range in color, from a light green to a stunning red. Adding a few cranberries during the cooking process will enhance the color of the simple syrup.
