Rhubarb Syrup

  1. In saucepan over medium-high heat, bring rhubarb, sugar, 1 cup water and lemon peel to boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb breaks down and mixture thickens slightly, about 5-8 minutes.

  2. Strain into bowl, pressing solids gently to extract liquid; discard solids. Cover and refrigerate until chilled. Make-ahead: Refrigerate in airtight container for up to 5 days.
