Ingredients  

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

Method
 

  1. Bring the sugar and water to a boil over high heat.
    1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup water
    A pot of water is boiling on an electric stovetop with visible bubbles and steam rising from the surface.

  3. Once it's cool, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve.

  4. Pour it into a jar (a funnel works well for jars with narrow mouths.) Use right away or transfer the syrup to a clean jar. It will last in your fridge for up to 2 weeks.
