This 3 ingredient Caramel Syrup recipe is super easy and takes only minutes to make. It has deep vanilla notes that are the perfect addition to tea, coffee, and mocktails.
To a small saucepan add the sugar and half of the water.
Over medium high heat, allow the sugar to completely dissolve and come to a boil. Without stirring, allow it to cook for 10 minutes and turn an amber color.
Pull the pot off of the heat and pour in the other half of the water and the vanilla extract (add the salt here for salted caramel syrup).
Place it back on the stove and stir until it comes to boil. Remove from heat, cover with a lid, and allow the Caramel Simple Syrup cool to room temperature.
Pour into an airtight glass bottle or container and refrigerate.
