Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1 cup granulated sugar

Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, water, and lemon juice.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes until the blueberries burst and the syrup thickens slightly.

- Remove from heat and let it cool before serving. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
