Ingredients
- 1 cup (250ml) water
- 1 cup (200g) granulated white sugar
- ½ cup (100g) light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons chai spice or 2 chai tea bags
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Stir the sugars and water together in a pot, bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer for 5 minutes.
- Add the chai spice and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, stir in the vanilla and allow to cool.
- Strain in a fine mesh strainer (or mesh bag) over a bowl.
- Pour into a jar or bottle and keep in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.
Notes
- Do not add the spices to the simple syrup until the mixture is dissolved. The chai spice can cook too long and become bitter if left in.
- Make sure the syrup cools enough to handle as hot sugar syrup can cause serious burns when handled.
- A sanitized jar or container is best to hold homemade syrup to prevent any bacteria growth For a lighter-colored chai syrup, you may need to strain the mixture twice to remove any leftover spice particles.
- Change up the flavor of the syrup by using a maple or almond extract instead of vanilla.
- You can use two chai tea bags to flavor the syrup if you don’t have the ingredients for a homemade spice blend.
- If you enjoy a particular flavor or spice and want it to be stronger, feel free to add more of it to customize to your tastes.
- For a deeper caramel chai syrup, use only light brown sugar or dark brown sugar in the mix.
