Notes
Serving size is roughly 1 teaspoon to 1 tablespoon per drink depending on your sweetness preferences. This recipe makes just under 1 cup.
Allow the syrup to cool completely at room temperature before transferring it to the fridge. This will prevent it from crystallizing. It can be immediately added to a hot drink but please allow it to cool to room temperature before adding it to iced drinks or stir it in the to the coffee before adding ice.
