Syrup Recipes Collection is a quick reference guide to flavoured simple syrups. I wanted easy access to it, a go-to guide for syrup recipes I had used or might use in the future.
Simple syrup is the building block of most flavoured syrups and is made using cold or hot methods. The ratio usually is 1:1 or 2:1 sugar to water.
There are two main ways of making syrups: cold and hot.
Cold method: Combine sugar and water in a shaker, shake for 30 seconds, let it rest for a little bit, and shake again for 30 seconds.
Hot method 1: Add sugar and water to a pot and simmer until the sugar is dissolved.
Hot method 2: making an inverted syrup. There are two ways of making it. If you use the ratio of 1:1, add a little bit of acidity—lemon juice or a pinch of cream of tartar—and simmer it for 20-30 minutes; you will create a sweeter and thicker syrup.
The other method involves using a sugar-water ratio of 2:1, bringing the water to a boil, and then simmering it for about 15 -20 minutes. The resulting Inverted sugar syrup should be slightly sweeter, thicker, and have a longer shelf life.
The Syrup Recipe Collection is by no means final, and it will be periodically updated with new recipes in the future.
