This recipe comes from one of our favorite spots in Columbus, Ohio called Fox in the Snow. If you are in the neighborhood and head there for a visit, it is a must stop. They use our pure vanilla extract in their vanilla syrup and kindly shared a small-batch recipe for home.
Materials:
Small saucepan
1 cup of water
1 cup of white sugar
1 tbsp vanilla extract
Stovetop or induction burner
Timer
Storage bottle

Pour water into the saucepan and bring to a boil. Add sugar and simmer on low heat for 4 minutes.
