1. Make the Sugar Syrup

• Add the sugar and water to a small saucepan.

• Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir continuously until the sugar dissolves completely, about 1–2 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat as soon as the sugar dissolves or the temperature reaches 60°C (140°F). Avoid simmering or boiling the mixture.

2. Cool and Store

• Allow the syrup to cool to room temperature.

• Transfer to a clean, airtight container or jar. Refrigerate and use within 1 month.

Serve and Enjoy!

Simple syrup is a staple for sweetening drinks like cocktails, iced teas, and lemonades. It’s also great for brushing onto cakes to keep them moist or adding to fruit salads for extra sweetness. Enjoy!
