Chamomile Simple Syrup

Recipe by Veronika Sykorova

This Chamomile Simple Syrup is a delicious floral syrup that's perfect for anything from iced tea to cocktails, and even lattes! The syrup has just 3 ingredients and takes less than 30 minutes to make. It's freezer-friendly and great for spring and summer!


  • Total Time20 minutes
  • Yield1 1/3 cup 1x
  • DietVegan

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup cane sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup dried chamomile flowers (or 4 teabags)

Instructions

  1. Add cane sugar, water, and chamomile flowers to a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer and stir constantly just until the sugar dissolves.
  3. Lower the heat and simmer the mixture for 8 minutes.
  4. Take the syrup off the heat and allow it to cool for 5 minutes. The longer you let it sit, the stronger the flavor will be.
  5. Strain the syrup through a fine mesh strainer into a large measuring cup or a bowl, and pour into a glass jar. Allow it to cool down before closing it with a lid and storing it in the fridge. 

Notes

Storing: Store the syrup in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 14 days. You can also freeze it in a freezer-safe container for 2-3 months. The syrup never freezes completely solid so I don’t recommend storing it in an ice cube tray. It does make it easy to defrost and scoop with a spoon straight from the freezer into your drink.
