Description

This Chocolate Simple Syrup is made with just 3 simple ingredients in less than 10 minutes. Use it in coffee, lattes, and cocktails, or drizzle over ice cream!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup raw cacao powder (or cocoa powder)
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2-1 cup water (depending on how thick you want the syrup to be)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Add the cane sugar, cacao powder, and sea salt to a bowl or a large jar and stir together.
  2. Bring the water to a boil and pour over the chocolate sugar mixture.
  3. Use a handheld milk frother to mix everything together. The hot water will melt the sugar and blend well with the cacao powder.
  4. Once it’s well blended and smooth, stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Transfer to an airtight jar or container and store in the fridge. Wait for the syrup to cool completely before closing the jar with a lid.

Notes

Storing: The syrup will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 2 weeks.
