Notes

To make simple syrup:

Add one cup of sugar and one cup of water to a small saucepan

Turn heat to medium/low and stir until the sugar is completely melted, do not let it boil or simmer

Remove from heat, let cool completely and store in an airtight container in the fridge

Tips:

I love this recipe because you can customize it to your preferences. I like mine a little sweeter than my husband does, so I add more simple syrup to mine. Taste and adjust as needed, you can be flexible with it.

To make this a cocktail - you can add a shot of your favorite clear liquor, like vodka or tequila.
