Servings: 10 servings
Calories: 40kcal
Ingredients
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- 1½ cups water
- 1¾ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1½ teaspoons ground ginger
- ¾ teaspoon ground allspice
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg - freshly grated is best if you have it
Instructions
- Combine the sugar and water in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to dissolve sugar.
- Whisk in the spices. Reduce the heat slightly and simmer the mixture for 3 minutes. Remove the pan from heat.
- Strain the syrup by pouring it through a cheesecloth-lined funnel into a glass mason jar. Allow the syrup to cool completely.
- Keep the syrup covered and refrigerated for up to 2 ro 4 weeks.
- Makes about 1¼ cups of syrup. (A typical pump of syrup at Starbucks is a ½-tablespoon, which means this recipe gives you about 40 pumps!)
Notes
- Straining the syrup removes the spice solids so that they don't muddy your drinks. But don't worry: the pumpkin spice flavor stays in the syrup and it is vibrant!
- Use this syrup in your favorite hot drinks, like coffee, tea, lattes, and cocoa. Add just enough Pumpkin Pie Spice Syrup to suit your sweet tooth.
