How to: German Rock Sugar Simple Syrup

This recipe calls for a simple syrup made with our German Rock Sugar. Here’s how to make it:
Heat equal parts of both Rock Sugar and water on the stove top just until liquid comes to a boil and sugar has dissolved. Let cool. Alternately, you can also use our PerfectTea Maker by combining equal parts sugar & boiling water, let dissolve and cool.
