Notes
- To make simple syrup: Bring 2 cups of water to a simmer. Add 2 cups of sugar and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool completely. Store unused syrup in a container in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks.
- To make homemade vanilla syrup: Heat ½ cup simple syrup to a low simmer. Add ¼ cup brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat, then add 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract (Mexican vanilla preferred). Store the syrups in squeeze bottles for easy dispensing.
- To avoid watered-down coffee, make coffee ice cubes using an ice cube tray!
