Thyme simple syrup
Report
This simple syrup has a lovely delicately herbal flavor that adds a gently aromatic flavor to whatever you use it in.

Ingredients
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup water
- 4 prigs thyme
Instructions
- Remove any woody stems from the thyme - you can use the rest as shorter stems or just leaves, as you prefer.
- Add the sugar, water and thyme to a small pan and warm over a medium heat, stirring regularly to help the sugar dissolve. Only warm it enough to let the sugar dissolve and have the mixture just starting to simmer.
- Remove the pan from the heat and allow the thyme to steep in the syrup for around 15-20 minutes as the syrup cools.
- Pour the syrup through a fine strainer/sieve to hold back the thyme and store the syrup in a sealed bottle/jar in the fridge until needed.
Notes
- I used regular sugar in the US, which is relatively fine - I'd recommend you don't use a coarse sugar to help it dissolve quicker and certainly not so that it still needs to dissolve before reaching a simmer.
