Date syrup

With the high cost of maple syrup I decided to dabble at making an alternative sweetener. 


Ingredients:
2 packs of pressed dates
Water
And that's it!

Method:
Chop the dates very finely, making sure there's no pips. 
Put Dates in a pot and cover with filtered water. 
Bring to the boil and then simmer for 30 minutes. 
When cool enough to handle strain through a muslin or cheese cloth. 
Boil the liquid till reduced by about half. 
Bottle the syrup. Keep the pulp for date balls.
