Notes

*How To Make Cane Sugar Syrup

This cane sugar syrup is similar to simple syrup but twice as sweet. In a saucepan, combine 2 cups organic cane sugar (often labeled “evaporated cane juice”) with 1 cup cold water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves but being careful not to let it come to a boil. Remove from the heat. That’s your cane sugar syrup.
