Ingredients

Instructions

Combine ingredients:

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar and water.

Heat the mixture:

  1. Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir the mixture constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.

Simmer:

  1. Once the sugar has dissolved, let the mixture come to a gentle simmer. Continue to simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. This helps to thicken the syrup slightly and deepen the flavor.

Cool and store:

  1. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature. Once cooled, pour the syrup into a clean bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid. The syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a month.

Serve:

  1. Use the brown sugar simple syrup to sweeten your coffee, tea, cocktails, or drizzle it over pancakes, waffles, or desserts.

Note

  • Consistency: The longer you simmer the syrup, the thicker it will become. Be careful not to overcook it, as it can become too thick and sticky.
  • Brown Sugar Type: Light brown sugar will give a milder flavor, while dark brown sugar will provide a richer, more intense caramel flavor.
  • Storage: Keep the syrup in the refrigerator. It may thicken slightly when cold, so you can warm it slightly before use if needed.
