Rich Demerara Syrup
Holiday 2023
Demerara is a coarse brown raw cane sugar tasting of maple and molasses. When made into a rich syrup (two-to-one sugar-to-water), it brings a silky texture to stirred drinks such as a Sazerac or Old Fashioned.
Makes 2/3 cup (150 mL)
2/3 cup (150 mL) demerara sugar
1/3 cup (80 mL) water
1. In a small saucepan, place sugar and water over medium-low heat. Whisk often until sugar is dissolved—do not let it come to a simmer. Remove from heat and cool completely. Transfer to glass jar. Cover and refrigerate up to 1 month.
