How to Make Simple Syrup for Cocktails
What’s simpler than simple syrup? Grab some sugar add water put it on the stove and—stop. You’ve already put in more effort than you need to. Here’s why.
You don’t need to heat simple syrup. The science is actually quite simple. Sucrose (granulated sugar) dissolves well in water at room temperature. How much sucrose? About 2000 g/l or just enough to make a thick 2:1 simple syrup by mass.
Granted the sugar does take some time to dissolve. If you are making a 1:1 syrup you can simply mix equal parts sugar and water and it will do its job in about 15 to 20 minutes.
