Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

4 cups chopped rhubarb
2 cups water
2 cups white sugar, or as needed

Directions

Bring rhubarb and water to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until rhubarb is falling apart, about 10 minutes.
Line a strainer with a double layer of cheesecloth, set over a bowl, and strain mixture. Gently press on rhubarb with a wooden spoon to squeeze out any remaining juice. It should yield about 2 cups of liquid. Discard pulp or save for another use.
Return liquid to the saucepan over medium heat and stir in an equal amount of sugar Heat until sugar is dissolved, 2 to 3 minutes. Skim any foam from the top of the syrup. Let cool.

Cook’s Note

Four cups of chopped rhubarb is about 5 to 6 thin stalks.

If you like things a little less sweet like I do, use 1 ½ cups of sugar instead of 2.

Instead of discarding the pulp, I like to sweeten it with a bit of sugar and eat it on top of yogurt or oatmeal.
