Black walnut syrup is Jordan's favorite winter hobby, because you know?!  We don't have enough to do and are always looking for some more things to add to our schedule. haha However, sweet, tasty things call his name and best of all you get to build and watch the fire - how can it be any better?

Jordan finds this is a great way to relax and unwind.  Winter is a much-needed break, and being able to make black walnut syrup is a great way to do just that (while working a little on the side).

A FEW WAYS TO USE BLACK WALNUT SYRUP:

1) Enjoy on your breakfast pancakes, waffles, French toast, or make a glaze for doughnuts!

2) Naturally sweeten your coffee

3) Makes a great simple syrup for those who enjoy an old-fashioned whiskey

A FEW FUN FACTS:

1) It takes 5 gallons of sap to make one 8oz jar of black walnut syrup!

2) Sap is clear when it comes out of the tree; boiling is what gives it the amber color of syrup.

3) Sap only has correct sugar content mid-winter, lasting only about a month!

4) Most black walnut syrup on the market is diluted with corn syrup or some other sweetener.  We keep ours pure!

5) Sitting by a fire reduces stress and anxiety by 100%. Okay, maybe we just made that one up, but perhaps it's true! ;)
