Simple Syrup

Simple Syrup

Simple syrup is just that, simply sugar and water so you don’t have to take the time or steps to dissolve sugar in cocktails. What some noted bartenders and mixologists actually prefer is a 1.5 to 1 ratio of sugar to water. Sometimes you can get more creative, depending on what types of spirits you are using and substitute honey mix (honey and water), maple syrup, or even agave.

  • Simple Syrup: 1 to 1 ratio sugar to water (1:1)
  • Rich Syrup: 2:1 ratio sugar to water
  • Rock Candy Syrup 3:1 ratio sugar to water
