Starbucks Caramel Syrup Copycat Recipe
Ingredients
¾ cup water
½ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup brown sugar
1 teaspooon vanilla
Instructions
Heat water, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium/ medium high heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved, then no longer.
Bring water and sugars to a boil and boil for one minute. Remove from heat (still no stirring). Allow to cool 1-2 minutes, then stir in the vanilla. Allow to cool to room temperature then transfer to a jar or other container and store in the refrigerator.
Make sure to use a high quality pure vanilla, as one of the highlighted flavors in caramel is vanilla.
If you like a deeper, richer flavor use dark brown sugar instead of light. We tested it with dark brown and really enjoyed the flavor, but opted for light brown for a more classic taste for this recipe.
Make sure to include the regular granulated sugar- it is essential in helping the syrup keep it's form.
Allow to cool completely at room temperature then transfer to a container and store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.
To make thicker for pancakes and desserts, double the sugars and make as directed.
