Instructions

  1. Add cane sugar and water to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves. 
  2. Simmer the syrup for 10 minutes.
  3. Take off the heat and stir in the peppermint extract. Start with ¼ tsp, taste it, and add more to taste. Every brand of peppermint extract might have a different strength.
  4. Pour the syrup into a glass jar and store it in the fridge. Wait for it to cool down before closing with a lid.

Notes

Store the syrup in an airtight jar in the fridge for 2 weeks.

You can freeze any leftovers in an ice cube tray and defrost and use as needed.

The syrup makes about 1 1/3 cup which is about 10 servings when you use 2 tbsp per serving.
