Strawberry Sugar

Flavored sugars are a great way to add more complexity and flavor to a dish. It also makes a nice and colorful addition to fruity drinks. Super easy to make and great for gifts. Great for flavoring homemade candies!

Sugar (whatever kind you like, I use cane)

Freeze dried strawberries

Blender/food processor/grinder of some sort

Airtight container

4 teaspoons of powdered fruit to 1 cup of sugar seems to be a good ratio. But obviously, increase or decrease depending on your preferences.

Blend/grind your freeze dried strawberries into a fine powder. I chose to grind the strawberries by hand because I had such a small amount, it didn't seem worth using my Vitamix. You can find freeze dried strawberries in most stores, mine came from Trader Joe's.

Add the strawberries to your sugar and mix well. Taste test to determine if you need more strawberry or not.

Keep the strawberry sugar in an airtight container. This sugar should last 2-3 months.
