Tips:

  • You can use any type of sugar you like, but granulated sugar is the most common.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the syrup for doneness by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Once the syrup is ready, remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly before using.
  • Store the syrup in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Basic syrup is a versatile ingredient that can be used in a variety of cocktails, mocktails, and other beverages. It is also a great way to sweeten iced tea, lemonade, and other non-alcoholic drinks. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make your own basic syrup at home.
