How to Make Sam S Symple Syrup

  1. In a two-quart stainless steel saucepan, combine 2 cups of water and 2 cups of granulated sugar.
  2. Slowly bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Once the syrup comes to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 1 minute, or until the syrup becomes clear and slightly thickened.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool completely. If adding mint leaves or lemon peel (optional), add them to the saucepan during the simmering stage. Simmer for 2 minutes only. Then remove from heat and allow to cool and infuse for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Once cooled, strain the syrup through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any solids (mint leaves, lemon peel).
  6. Transfer the strained syrup to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator. Use as needed in your favorite iced beverages.
