Vodka Simple Syrup - water

Method

• Bring the water to the boil in a large pot.
• Reduce the heat to moderate, add the sugar and stir until it dissolves completely.
• Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes until the mixture has a syrup consistency.
• Add the vodka, mix well and cool.
• Transfer to a jar or container and reserve for use.
• In a tightly sealed container, Vodka Simple Syrup keeps indefinitely, though it may begin to crystallize over time.
• If it crystallizes, simply warm the container in a pot of slow-simmering water.
