How to Make Homemade Vanilla Syrup For Soft Drinks

  1. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup water, and 1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise and seeds scraped (or 2 teaspoons vanilla extract).
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the vanilla flavor to infuse.
  4. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely. If using a vanilla bean, remove it before cooling.
  5. Transfer the cooled syrup to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  6. Shake well before each use. Add to your favorite soft drink to taste – start with a teaspoon and add more to your preference.
