This syrup couldn't be simpler: just sugar and water, warmed gently until every granule melts into a clear, silky liquid. There's no need to let it boil — a few minutes of steady heat and a good stir is all it takes to get that smooth, pourable consistency. Once it cools to room temperature, it's ready to bottle up and stash in the fridge for whenever you need it. It's the kind of pantry staple that makes cocktails, iced coffee, and lemonade taste like they came from a proper bar or café. And since it's just two humble ingredients from start to finish, it's an easy, reliable choice for a vegan kitchen.
