Vanilla Simple Syrup (Coffeehouse)
This delicious Vanilla Syrup recipe is a Starbucks copycat. It's perfect for coffee, hot chocolate, tea, mixed drinks, Italian sodas, smoothies and perfect to splash into things like overnight oats.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place water in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Add sugar and stir until completely dissolved. Don't stir again once the sugar is dissolved.
- Bring to a boil and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat and (still don't stir) let it sit for 1-2 minutes. Add the vanilla and stir to combine. Pour into jar. Let sit undisturbed at room temperature for 1-2 hours, until it's no longer warm. Move to the refrigerator.
Notes
- This is a coffeehouse syrup. For pancake syrup, increase the sugar to 1 ½ cups and follow the other ingredients and instructions.
- Wait until the boiling sugar water has been removed from the heat and sat for 30-60 seconds before adding the vanilla for best results.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. After a month, the syrup will start to crystallize.
- We do not recommend freezing this recipe.
- Since vanilla is the highlight of this recipe, we strongly recommend using a high quality pure vanilla.
