Syrup Base

Method

Syrup Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Sugar and Water

    In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 cup of water. Stir until the sugar is evenly distributed.

  2. 2

    Heat the Mixture

    Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Dissolve the Sugar

    Continue to heat until the sugar has completely dissolved, which should take about 3-5 minutes. Do not let it boil for too long.

  4. 4

    Add Vanilla Extract

    Once the sugar is dissolved, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract.

  5. 5

    Cool the Syrup

    Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, it will thicken slightly.

Storage

  1. 6

    Store the Syrup

    Transfer the cooled vanilla syrup into a clean glass jar or bottle with a tight lid. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
