Recipe for Simple Syrup
Simple syrup is a great way to sweeten cocktails, coffees, and teas without the grainy texture of regular sugar.
Servings: 1 Cup
Ingredients
- 1 C water
- 1 C granulated sugar
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat
- Bring to a low boil, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and mixture has thickened (~5-10mins)*
- Transfer syrup to a heat-proof, air-tight storage container and store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks
Notes
*Note: the longer you cook your ingredients, the thicker your syrup will be when cooled.
*Store simple syrup in an air-tight container in the fridge. I prefer to use glass containers.
