Notes
This recipe makes approximately 1 ¼ cups of simple syrup.
Bring to a slight boil then immediately reduce the heat to ensure it doesn’t thicken to a caramel-like consistency or burn.
Allow the syrup to cool completely at room temperature before using it in iced drinks, as cooling it prevents crystallization when added over ice, though it can be used immediately in hot drinks.
