As a Registered Dietitian, I would say that while strawberry simple syrup is certainly delicious, it should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Like any sweetener, simple syrup contains sugar, which can contribute to excess calorie intake and potential health concerns such as tooth decay and blood sugar imbalances when consumed in excess. However, making your own simple syrup from scratch can offer some benefits since you have control over the amount of sugar used and can also incorporate real, whole fruit like strawberries for added nutrients and fiber. Additionally, using a small amount of simple syrup to sweeten a drink or dessert can help you enjoy a sweet treat without going overboard on added sugars. So, while strawberry simple syrup is not necessarily a health food, it can be a fun and tasty way to add flavor to your recipes when enjoyed in moderation.
