  2. Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and use a spoon to skim off the foam.

  3. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl. DO NOT push on the raspberries or the syrup will be cloudy. Let it drain for at least 5 minutes without touching it.
