Rhubarb Mint Syrup | Water Bath Canning Recipe | Homestead Pantry

Rhubarb Mint Syrup is one of my favorite recipes to use up fresh rhubarb from the garden. In previous years I have made a small batch of this for the fridge, this year I am water bath canning the recipe so we have a shelf stable syrup for the pantry. This Rhubarb Mint Syrup is a great addition to cocktails, lemonade, sparkling water, or can be used to flavor kombucha or water kefir.

Rhubarb Mint Syrup Recipe:
8 cups chopped rhubarb
Fresh mint to your liking - I do a few handfuls
2 cups cane sugar or honey
4 cups water

Simmer rhubarb, sugar, and water together for 20 minutes. Turn off heat and add mint leaves. Let mixture steep for about 30 minutes. Strain through cheesecloth. Fill jars to 1/4 inch of headspace and process for 10 minutes in a water bath canner.

Looks delicious, I think it would be good in a cup tea or I could add some to my homemade cough syrup.

I didn’t grow rhubarb this year so I probably won’t try this soon but it sounds delicious.

QUESTION: Could you do a video about the BALL canning book? How do I know what should be pressure canned or water-bathed, I don't see a ckear indication?

How do I know how long to can, etc.?

Which revipes have you tried? Maybe you could go through it.

We had a rhubarb plant outside our back porch and a mint bush on the side of my house growing up in Wyoming. I wish we had this recipe. Rhubarb-mint lemonade! My grandma made an amazing rhubarb-strawberry pie with those tiny wild strawberries we picked in the mountains. Do you have chokecherries in your area? They make an incredible syrup for sourdough pancakes.

How long can you use after it is opened?
