Simple Syrup is a great ingredient to have on hand. I'm particularly fond of using it in
cold drinks that need a bit of sweet. The "liquid sugar" eliminates the frustration of
getting regular granulated sugar to melt in cold liquids. Simple Syrup is also great for
sorbets and granitas or glazing cakes.
Ingredients
2 cups sugar
2 cups water
Method
Combine sugar and water in a saucepan over moderate heat. Bring just to the boil,
ensure the sugar is completely disolved and remove from heat; set aside to cool.
Simple Syrup keeps indefinitely, cover and refrigerate.
