Made with vibrant and floral soft-stick cinnamon, this flavor-packed and dense syrup (rich means a 2:1 ratio of sugar to water) is a great ingredient to have on hand to quickly add spice and sweetness to pretty much any dish or drink. You can even re-use the cinnamon to make chai.

Rich Cinnamon Syrup

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of filtered or mineral water

  • 2 cups raw sugar

  • 5 sticks of soft stick cinnamon, roughly crushed

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan with a lid bring one cup of water to a boil, add the sugar and cinnamon and stir well. Once it comes back to a boil cover the pot with the lid and let the syrup cool overnight to infuse.

  2. The next morning, warm the syrup to make it easy to pour, then strain through a coffee filter and pour into a clean bottle. Allow to cool, then store in the refrigerator where it will keep indefinitely. If you'd like to re-use the cinnamon see below for an idea.

  3. Due to the sugar content the syrup may crystallize over time, you can simply heat the bottle in hot water and then shake to redissolve.
