How to Make Vanilla Syrup For Coffee

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup water, and a pinch of salt.
  2. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to create a slightly thicker syrup.
  4. Remove from heat and let the syrup cool completely to room temperature. This prevents the vanilla extract from evaporating.
  5. Once cooled, stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or your preferred extract). Stir well to combine.
  6. Pour the syrup into a clean, airtight bottle or jar. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
