Sugar Cookie Simple Syrup

Recipe by Veronika Sykorova

This festive Sugar Cookie Syrup tastes just like sugar cookies and it's perfect for lattes, cocktails, and more! It's the perfect syrup for Christmas but you can make it any time of the year.


  • Total Time15 minutes
  • Yield1 1/2 cup 1x
  • DietVegan

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup cane sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp butter extract
  • 1/2 tsp almond extract
  • 1/8 tsp fine sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Add cane sugar and water to a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer stirring constantly until the sugar has melted to prevent it from sticking.
  3. Simmer the syrup for 10 minutes.
  4. Take the syrup off the heat and stir in vanilla extract, butter extract, almond extract, and sea salt (if using).
  5. Let the syrup cool slightly and store it in an airtight jar. Wait for the syrup to cool completely before closing the jar with a lid.
  6. Use immediately or store in the fridge until ready to use.

Notes

Fridge: Store the syrup in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.

Freezer: Store the syrup in a freezer-safe container in the freezer for up to 3-4 months. I like to store it in small 2-4 serving containers so that I don’t have to defrost it all at once.
