Pineapple Simple Syrup
Pineapple Simple Syrup is a delicious way to enhance a variety of dessert and drink recipes. This 2 ingredient recipe is ridiculously simple and can be made in about 15 minutes. Fresh pineapple elevates the flavor of plain simple syrup. With its lovely tropical flavor, this unique simple syrup recipe is delightful in mocktails, cocktails like my Fresh Pineapple Jalapeño Margarita (recipe coming soon), and my Fresh Pineapple Sorbet recipe!
Cranberry Simple Syrup & Topping
This sweet and slightly tart recipe for Cranberry Simple Syrup & Topping makes two recipes with one single effort! The cranberry topping is actually a byproduct of simple syrup, both of which can be used in a number of different food and drink recipes. Using only two ingredients, it’s hard to go wrong with this recipe. It’s so yummy, that you will be looking for even more ways to use it!
Quick Honey Simple Syrup
This Quick Honey Simple Syrup is delicious in cocktails, or drizzled on yogurt, pancakes, or waffles. Using only 2 ingredients, this easy recipe for simple syrup takes only minutes to prepare. It’s a great make ahead recipe when you are entertaining, and is especially wonderful in my Cider In The Rye Cocktail! This simple syrup dissolves easily in both cold or hot drinks, and adds a special flavor to lemonade or iced tea.
