Share:
Ingredients
- 1 cup water , filtered/purified or spring
- 1-1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon pure peppermint extract (or additional, to taste)*
Instructions
- Combine water and granulated sugar in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat until just simmering, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Don't bring the mixture to a rolling boil so the water doesn't evaporate.
- Remove from heat and stir in the peppermint extract. Let cool to room temperature.
- Add the syrup, to taste, to your favorite coffeehouse inspired beverages and teas, or cocktails. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 weeks.
Notes
- *I've provided a range on the quantity of peppermint extract, as the strength of flavor can vary by brand and by the age of the bottle. I most often use 1 teaspoon of Nielsen-Massey's Pure Peppermint Extract. I recommend starting conservatively and adding the extract to taste, to create the perfect syrup for your preferences and the extract brand you've purchased.
