Equipment
- 1.5 quart saucepan
Ingredients
- 2 cups packed light brown sugar*
- 1 cup water
- ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar (helps prevent sugar crystals)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice blend
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Add the brown sugar, water, and cream of tartar to a small saucepan.
- Whisk together and heat over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally (try not to scrape down the sides too much).
- Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and the pinch of salt. You can always adjust the amount of cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice to suit your tastes.
- Allow to cool completely, then transfer to a jar or bottle and store at room temperature or in the fridge. This should last for several weeks in the fridge.
- The spices may tend to settle in the jar, so stir the syrup before pouring into your drinks.
Notes
*If you want less of a brown sugar taste, you can use half brown sugar and half regular white sugar in this recipe. If you want a dark brown sugar taste, you can use dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar.
