Pickled spruce tips:

2c each water and apple cider vinegar
2 slightly heaping tsps kosher salt
2 extra heaping tsps honey (maybe 6-7 tbsp in all)
Spruce tips

Heat brine ingredients together, pack tips into jars, pour brine over tips. I put a hot pepper in a couple jars too.

Water bath.



Spruce tip syrup:

Equal parts water and white sugar

Bring to a simmer

Stuff in spruce tips (8 cups per 4-6 cups water)

Simmer & steep for several hours. Strain.

Add 1tbsp lemon juice per cup water, into jars, water bath.



Let's see if the spruce tips soaked in sugar water come out as candy.

Sounds neat. I'll have to keep an eye out for spruce tips next year. :)
