Brown sugar simple syrup made with just three ingredients, perfect for adding to coffee, tea, or even desserts.
Servings: 20
Ingredients
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add brown sugar, water, and vanilla extract to a small saucepan and combine well using a wooden or silicone spoon.
- Bring ingredients to a boil and then immediately lower to simmer.
- Simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Note: If you're low on time, simmer for just 5 minutes, but the flavor will be deeper with a longer simmer time.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow to cool before pouring into a mason jar or airtight container for storage. Note: Syrup will thicken as it cools and will be thicker once refrigerated. Don't be alarmed if it appears "watery" right after it's finished, that's normal!
- Add this simple syrup to your favorite coffee, tea, hot chocolate or any hot or cold beverages that you'd typically sweeten with sugar.
