  4. Store the jar in a cool & dark place for 1 month. Shake the jar occasionally. (Don’t open the lid!)

  5. After a month, it’s time to open the lid. Take plums out. Heat syrup in a pan and bring to boiling.

  7. Enjoy with cold water or sparkling water (syrup : water = 1 : 5). Over shaved ice is also a good idea. (You don’t have to dilute!)
