To make Simple Syrup: To make one gallon of simple syrup, dissolve five pounds of sugar into 2½ quarts of warm or hot water. You do not have to use boiling water. Stir or shake container until the sugar is dissolved. Let syrup cool to room temperature before mixing with flavor concentrates. The heat from hot syrup can weaken your flavor concentrate. Unpreserved simple syrup will have a shelf life of only 7 to 14 days. To make ready-to-use syrup: 1. Shake the flavor concentrate well before using it. This is extremely important! This is the number one rule! Shake and then shake some more! 2. If making a quart of shaved ice syrup, add 1 ounce of concentrate to an empty long neck quart bottle. If making a gallon of syrup, add 4 ounces of concentrate to an empty one gallon jug. 3. Fill the quart bottle or gallon jug with preserved simple syrup. Cap and gently shake. |
