Start by measuring and preparing all your ingredients. This ensures you have everything you need at hand before you start cooking.
Next, combine all of the prepared ingredients in a medium-sized saucepan. This will provide ample space for the ingredients to mix together.
Place the saucepan on a burner set to medium heat. As it heats, keep mixing the ingredients with a whisk or a silicone spatula to ensure an even combination.
Continue cooking the mixture until the syrup becomes clear and all ingredients are combined. This ensures that the sugar is completely dissolved and the syrup is smooth.
Once the syrup is ready, remove it from heat and allow it to cool completely before using. This step is crucial as it prevents the hot syrup from causing steam or condensation in your storage jar.After the syrup has cooled, transfer it into a jar for storage. Make sure the jar is clean and dry to preserve the freshness of your homemade simple syrup.
