Simple syrup with skinny version
Description
Simple syrup is a versatile liquid sweetener made by dissolving sugar or alternative sweeteners in water. This recipe offers a regular version with equal parts sugar and water, and a skinny variant using a no-calorie sweetener diluted in a higher water ratio. The syrup is heated gently until the sugar fully dissolves, avoiding burning by stirring continuously. Extended cooking can thicken the syrup, while short boiling yields a thinner consistency. Using purified water and quality sugar helps maintain a clear color. Once cooled, the syrup is stored in an airtight container and remains usable for up to two months refrigerated.
Ingredients
REGULAR SIMPLE SYRUP
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup water
SKINNY SIMPLE SYRUP
- ¼ cup no calorie sweetener or 15 individual packets
- 2 cups water
Instructions
- In a small saucepan add both ingredients and bring to a soft boil over medium-high heat.
- Keep mixing the sugar with a wooden spoon to make sure it doesn't stick to the bottom. This will ensure all of the sugar melts all the way.
- Place in an airtight container cool completely before storing in fridge.
- Simple syrup last about 1 to 2 months in refrigerator.
Notes
- Use purified or filtered water and high-quality sugar to produce a clearer simple syrup.
- Adjust cooking time to achieve desired syrup thickness: shorter for thin syrup, longer at lower heat for thicker syrup.
- Store the syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator; it keeps for 1 to 2 months.
