Notes
TipsUse caster sugar instead of granulated sugar as it would dissolve quicker because it is finer in grain.Don’t like dark brown sugar or would prefer a lighter shade of brown for the syrup then use light brown sugar or demerara.Swap the vanilla extract for salted caramel or another flavour extract of choice.
