Ingredients

  • ¾ cup water
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 3 cinnamon sticks

Instructions

  • Put all ingredients in a saucepan and simmer.
    Stir to make sure sugar dissolves completely.
  • Take off heat and steep for 20 minutes.
  • Remove cinnamon sticks and pour syrup into an airtight container.
    The syrup will keep for 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Recipe makes 1 cup (16 tablespoons) of syrup. Use 1-2 tablespoons of syrup for each cup to sweeten and flavor.
  • There's no need to let the ingredients come to a boil. Simmering on low heat to let the sugar dissolve, then steeping is enough to make the simple syrup.
  • The longer the cinnamon sticks steep in the saucepan with the sugar and water, the stronger the cinnamon taste will be.
