Ingredients

Homemade Maple Syrup

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp maple extract

Homemade Buttermilk Syrup

  • 3/4 cup buttermilk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Homemade Strawberry Syrup

  • 3 cups strawberries fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup water divided
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Homemade Maple Syrup

  • In a medium pot, bring sugars and water to a boil for 1 minutes. Whisk in extracts. Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes before using.

Homemade Buttermilk Syrup

  • Combine buttermilk, sugar, and butter in a pot over medium high heat, and stir, allowing butter to melt and ingredients to combine. Bring to boil for 1 minutes, then remove from heat. Whisk in baking soda and vanilla until combined - mixture will foam, so you may want to do this over the sink! Serve while still warm, or heat up if using from refrigerator.

Homemade Strawberry Syrup

  • Combine strawberries and 1/2 cup water in a pot over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook 15-20 minutes, until berries have broken down. Stir in remaining water and remove from heat. Strain juice from berries using a fine-mesh sieve set over a bowl. Discard solids, and return juice to pot, adding sugar and bringing to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer another 5-10 minutes until thickened. Whisk in vanilla and remove from heat. Serve while warm.
