Jalapeño Simple Syrup

Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes

Equipment

  • Small Saucepan (1-2 Quarts)

Ingredients  

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 jalapenos, sliced

Instructions 

  • Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add jalapeño slices (with or without seeds, depending on desired heat level).
  • Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally until the sugar is completely dissolved about 3-5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let cool completely with jalapeño slices still in the syrup. The longer the jalapeño steeps, the spicier the syrup will be.
  • Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean container and refrigerate until ready to use. (Can be made up to 2 weeks in advance.)
