Instructions

Step 2
Add the halved raspberries and gooseberries into the simple syrup. With the back of a wooden spoon or heat-proof spatula, gently mash berries against the side of the pot to release flavour and juices. Simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cover pot to allow flavours to infuse; 20 minutes.

Strain the cooled berry mixture into a large bowl through a fine-mesh sieve or a sieve lined with cheesecloth. Gently press fruit to extract as much juice as possible. Discard orange zest. Keep berries for other uses.
