How to Make Rosemary Simple Syrup
Ingredients
- 2 sprigs of rosemary
- 1 cup filtered water
- 1 cup sugar *You can also use other types of sugar to enhance the flavor. I recommend turbinado sugar or demerara sugar.
Directions:
- Combine the ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Allow the mixture to boil and cook for about 1 minute.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and cover it with a tight-fitting lid. Steep for 10 to 15 minutes.
- When the mixture has cooled to room temperature, strain the rosemary simple syrup into a clean, sterilized container, such as a Mason jar or a similar container with a clamp lid.
- Use right away, or store in the refrigerator. The syrup will keep for up to two (2) weeks.
