Two quick, easy simple syrup recipes that are so fast to make and keep for up to 30 days in the refrigerator. What a time saver! Just think, one less step when making your evening cocktail after a busy day.
We have two varieties, a gold and a white simple syrup for your drinking pleasure. The white simple syrup will do for most drinks however we like to keep both on hand. The gold simple syrup goes well with more full-bodied drinks, such as dessert cocktails, as well as coffee with Tequila. It is also great for sweetening your early morning cup of Joe and other coffee specialty drinks.
Ratio: One Part to One Part for Basic Simple Syrup Recipes
We are using one part pure cane sugar and one part water for a basic simple syrup, keeping the right consistency for bar drinks. If you prefer a sweeter, slightly thicker syrup, then you would double the sugar and combine it with one part water.
Add sugar and water to a small saucepan and cook over medium heat stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature. Pour the cooled syrup into a glass jar and seal tightly with a lid or cork.
Generally speaking, the serving size is one tablespoon, of course, that is dependent on your preferred level of sweetness. The total servings at one tablespoon each is approximately 32 single servings.
You can create a multitude of different varieties from floral, fruity, spicy even chocolate. Adding additional flavorings, such as ginger, vanilla, chocolate, or other spices, and herbs will make you the hit of the party. You can go spicy with the addition of Jalapeño slices, citrusy with lemon or lime slices.
You can use them in any drink such as coffee, smoothies, teas or other specialty drinks.
