Let’s do this!
Ingredients
- 1 cup of sugar in granules
- One cup of water
- 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract
Equipment
- A small pot
- Whisk
- Spoons and cups for measuring
- Funnel (for pouring into a jar, if you like)
- A glass jar or bottle to keep things in
How to Make Cinnamon Coffee Syrup
1. Mix the things together
In a small pot, combine 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water, and 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon.
2. Warm up and mix
Put the pot on medium heat and stir the sugar until it is completely dissolved. Let it simmer for 5 to 7 minutes so that it thickens a little.
3. Add the vanilla.
Take the saucepan off the heat and mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
4. Let it cool and put it away.
After the syrup has cooled fully, use a funnel to pour it into a glass jar or bottle for storing.
Changes and Replacements
- Use brown sugar instead of white sugar for a flavor that is more like molasses.
- Maple syrup: For a hint of maple, use maple syrup instead of some sugar.
- Add spices: A little nutmeg or cloves can make it warmer.
How to Prepare Ahead of Time
You may create this syrup two weeks ahead of time. Put it in a jar that won’t let air in and put it in the fridge. Shake it well before using.
How to Store and Use Leftovers
You may keep it in the fridge for up to two weeks in an airtight jar.
Shake well before each use because the cinnamon could settle at the bottom.
