    How to make Rosemary Simple Syrup

    WHAT IS SIMPLE SYRUP?

    Simple syrup is generally found in two strengths: Equal parts sugar and water, the most common strength in U.S. bars, is referred to as “one-to-one” (1:1). Two parts sugar to one part water is, as you might guess, referred to as 2:1, which is the standard syrup in U.K. bars; in the States, you’ll often hear 2:1 syrup being referred to as “rich simple syrup.”

    HOW LONG DOES SIMPLE SYRUP LAST FOR

    Sugar is used in cooking as a preservative— think jams and jellies, which are also called preserves. So simple syrups have a decent shelf life, when prepared and stored properly: made with very hot water and stored in a sterile container in the refrigerator. A 1:1 simple syrup like this one lasts only one month when refrigerated.

    HOW TO STORE:

    The recommended way to store simple syrup is to use an airtight container that's been sterilized.
