- Bartender's Tip:
- Keep simple syrup on hand to easily sweeten cocktails. Combine 1 cup water with 1 cup sugar in small saucepan. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring gently to dissolve sugar. Transfer to a jar and refrigerate until cold. Store in an airtight container, refrigerated, for up to one month.
