    Prepare the Simple Syrup

    In a small saucepan, combine the honey and water. Heat over medium heat while stirring until the honey is fully dissolved.

    Once the honey is dissolved, add the fresh sage leaves to the saucepan. Let it simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes to infuse the flavor.
