Because it's not mentioned, keep these syrups refrigerated, the basic recipe should last 6 months in the fridge, the infusions 3 months, while the ones with fruit it's safest to use them within 2-3 weeks, tho the orange-cardamon would probably last longer only using the zest
Adding more sugar might make them last longer and have a thicker consistency, although crystallization can be an issue. These syrups can also last longer if they're more acidic, so adding some citric acid will help - with the caveat that it can throw the flavours off balance for non-fruit syrups. Sterilizing the containers by submerging them in boiling water is always a good idea. The easiest solution is to buy sodium benzoate. You only have to use very little so it doesn't drive up the cost very much.
@@Akitektur Did you sterilize the container? If you didn't, it's harder to say. If it starts smelling funky or developing mold, it's bad, but it's better not to reach that point. If the container is not sterilized, a month is probably the hard limit.
@@Maguire708Julie Me as well. I keep having to calculate how long it has been, and it draws my eyes when it flips. (Yay ADHD. heh.) I think the very neutral space that is the new kitchen makes all those little things stand out more. The clock, the LCD screen on the back counter, that sort of thing. I find myself missing what Morgan says from time to time and having to go back.
@@iyabomarvel8506 Yes, refrigerate them to help them last longer, esp when adding fruit! Not sure how long they last- i usually use one up in 3ish weeks. I'd say if it smells good and isn't getting cloudy, it's still good 👍
You can use rose water in place of dried roses if you can't find food grade flowers. It can also be used to make a clear rose syrup if you are wanting to stealthily add rose flavor. A splash of rose water to pancake or waffle batter is fantastic
@@N33k5 Or grow your own. Roses are actually very ease to grow and they are great composters. Bury egg shells between their roots and they will grow even better.
@@wayneegli8379 that is definitely an option but I was mainly making simpler suggestions than grow a whole ass plant with no pesticides as not everyone has access to a good spot to plant. Roses don't do very well in pots and need a fair amount of sunlight.
I bet it'd work with any recipe that calls for water (as long as the flavors fit). For example, I believe the dark chocolate olive oil cake by Love and Lemons calls for boiling water, so it could add a nice new flavor. Definitely endorsing that recipe, btw.
We bought an Amoretto syrup from the store a while back. Once home I tasted and went, I can totally replicate that. And it is now my wife's daily coffee syrup. Recipe as follows. 1 cup white sugar 0.5 cup brown sugar 1.5 cups water 3 Tbsp almond extract 3 Tbsp white rum 1 Tbsp vanilla extract Water to top volume up to 750 mL (~3 cups)
Orange cardamom is one of my favorite flavor combinations! Before the pandemic, I had a bakery and I used to make orange cardamom rolls (like cinnamon rolls but swap the cinnamon for tons of orange zest and cardamom. So the same flavor profile, brown sugar, orange, cardamom) that everyone loved. One of my favorite parts (and my wife's) was the orange cardamom caramel that inevitably got stuck on the bottom of the pans! I hadn't thought of trying it in coffee! I'll definitely be making this! Thanks for the suggestion! One small suggestion? It's slightly more of a hassle, but zesting the oranges and adding a little of the juice would probably get you a better flavor than cooking whole slices (as aesthetically pleasing as that is!). Avoiding cooking the pith would avoid any underlying bitter notes you may get depending on the orange.
My go to syrup lately is fresh blueberries and dried lavender buds, it's so good! Especially in a white mocha. Another one I did once was a strawberry rose syrup from fresh strawberries and rose petals I dried myself in the oven 🥰 making syrups is so fun
due to osmotic pressure and the intensely hygroscopic nature of sugar, you could actually make most of these syrups without ever involving a heat source just by mixing your base ingredients with an equal amount by weight of sugar (or slightly more for particularly moist fruits). Oleo saccharum is a syrup made through just such a method. It's also shockingly effective with fresh herbs and flowers. Carefully peel your citrus to leave behind as much of the pith as possible (unless the pith tastes good) and then weigh that and combine in a jar with an equal amount by weight of sugar. Leave to sit in a relatively cool place until all of the sugar has dissolved and the zest looks crispy and dry. For particularly juicy fresh fruits, you'll want to use more sugar and allow this process to take place in the fridge to avoid things trying to grow in your syrup. If you want to make a fruit syrup faster, you can always choose to slice or muddle the fruit to puncture the skins and allow the sugar a more direct avenue to rip the moisture from them. Strain thoroughly through a fine sieve, tea towel, cheesecloth, or nut milk bag and bottle for later enjoyment. If you want to infuse spices into it in addition to fruits, herbs, or zest; then toast and lightly crush your spices into the jar with your fresh ingredients and leave it in there until the syrup is complete before straining out with the rest of the fruit or herb debris. To infuse the flavor of nuts and seeds that aren't as pungent as most spices, or if you want to infuse only spices, then you'll get better results by cracking or crushing them and boiling them in syrup to extract their flavor. Hazelnuts are a good example for this. Plus, if you use a heavy simple syrup, once you're done perfuming the syrup with the nuts, you can strain them out, set them aside to cool, and enjoy them later. They should form a layer of little sugar crystals on them as they dry. If you want a sweet and salty snack, make sure you sprinkle a bit of salt on them before they fully cool. One thing to note: Earl Grey pairs particularly well with vanilla, especially so if dairy is involved at some point, so slicing, scraping, and steeping a couple of vanilla pods into the Earl Grey syrup would definitely be a good idea. I would also go lighter on the lavender, as it has a tendency to make things taste like soap if you go to heavy with it. There are quite a few food grade dried flowers that you could mix with the lavender to complement it and add additional complexity. My personal preference will always be for honeysuckle, but to each their own.
@@christopherclark1854 Look up some videos on Korean cheong. It's fruit syrup made the way I described and they have at least several hundred years of history preparing this traditional product. Cheong is a favorite mixer for alcohol and you can even brew wine from a cheong if you wish to. It's also used as an ingredient in cooking instead of sugar (ginger, galangal, garlic, and various other herbs can provide you with very interesting results if you can keep them from fermenting too much and exploding) and can also be used as the syrup for beverages or added to tea. The options are quite varied.
I find that 'tea sugar' AKA beet sugar, is actually a lot more neutral than cane sugar. I didn't realize how different until I tried tea with them side by side and realized that even 'white sugar' has hints of molasses. Also, strawberry syrup is even more easy. You literally don't have to cook at all. Just sprinkle sliced berries with a generous amount of white sugar and put it in the fridge. Come back the next day and you'll have syrup (which you can reduce in the pot if you want it thicker).
Doesn't beet sugar have some issue with it or something? I honestly don't remember why I'm against it. Also, you should look into the process of making cheongs- My favorite I made was green apple flavored. You take your fruit, preferably one with a higher water content, and cut it up to have a higher surface area. You also take its weight in sugar and mix them in a jar, so the fruit is entirely covered with sugar and won't touch the air (so it doesn't mold). You put it in your fridge for a few weeks, stirring every few days I think, and the sugar liquefies and makes a nice syrup- You can strain the fruit or use it as a garnish, or have it in whatever drink you're making if it's cold. Cheongs tend to be fermented, but it's just a generally good way to make syrups. Sorry for my poor grammar, my brain is fried, lol.
@@GaySatanicClowns i'm not sure but i do know around my area we grow sugar beets and it does NOT smell pleasant when it comes time to turn it into sugar lol
Fun fact, while most modern recipes for simple syrup suggest equal parts water and sugar it is actually much more likely that the historical recipes were 2 parts (or more) sugar to 1 part water. If your recipe is at least 2/3 sugar it was shelf stable while only 1/2 was not.
Can confirm, I have homemade vanilla bean syrup I made using slightly over a 2:1 sugar:water ratio and it's stayed looking good as new for over a month at room temp
I purchased a cheap espresso machine worth $200 and after 6 months of practice and your recepie and tips beleive me I fell absolutely no need to go to Starbucks or any other cafe atleast for coffee , still learning how to make a rosseta, made my first heart a week ago 😍
I'm going to try it with a good sencha tea. But sencha doesn't like being boiled, so I will let it boil with the lavender for ten min, turn off thr heat, add the sencha, and let it steep for another 10 minutes or so. Should work. Don't think I would use it with coffee, but that leaves many other options....
@@jackieknits61 I don't think you need the boiling, just enough heat to dissolve the sugar so you could make it at lower green tea temperatures. But it probably wont have as good of a shelf life as boiled and would probably be better kept in the fridge
@@jackieknits61 a local tea shop of mine offers sencha blended with sakura blossoms and if that's something you can acquire, i think that would also make a lovely syrup!
An ingredient I've really been liking lately in coffee is Orgeat--almond syrup. Mostly a cocktail ingredient, but I think it goes well with coffee and I feel like I've rarely seen it recommended. If anyone enjoys hazelnut coffee, this is like its grown up cousin. Nutty, but also almost something floral. With so many folks going for almond milk, it seems fitting. And if you bring it back to it's cocktail roots, I'd shake over ice 30ml espresso, 15ml orgeat, and one's preference of between 15 and 30ml rum.
I found a cherry almond flavored coffee that I LOVE but it’s overpriced and “discontinued”(I suspect until next year) so I’m browsing TH-cam trying to figure out how to best make a cherry almond syrup to replicate or hopefully improve that flavor.
Definitely gonna try that cardamom syrup 👀 my favourite syrup is a lemongrass ginger syrup! mix with some lemon juice and sparkling water over ice for a super simple lemonade.
@@nyxh.7567 I usually kinda eyeball it, but about 3-4 stalks of lemongrass (make sure to crush them up a little before), about 5 thick slices of ginger, one cup of water and sugar. then for the lemonade i like it pretty sour, so i use equal parts syrup and lemon juice. You can play around with it to see what you like best :) i hope you like it!
Okay so I can be honest... I wanna see you attempt a homemade Irish Cream syrup. That is my favorite flavor for coffee, period. I'm obsessed with it. And having some kind of recipe to try and make it at home would be amazing.
@@sarahroth4052 as a barista, it’s sadly not even that popular. My store still has so much and I’m vv close to just taking one when we toss em bc it’s so good
I used to make rosemary vanilla syrup for the café I used to work at and it was amazing! If you make it you have to use a lot of rosemary and only the leaves, don't use the stems or it tastes bitter and less flavourful
My favorite latte I’ve ever had was from a small local place in Indianapolis and it was a Pineapple Ube latte - i always got it iced. The ube made the latte beautiful because it was turn the milk into a lavender color. The end result was very similar to a vanilla latte with a slightly different flavor profile, would recommend and would love to see you try to recreate !!
I often break open a cardamom pod and put a few seeds in Turkish coffee, matcha latte, or hot chocolate. It really adds to the taste. Can’t wait to try these. I’ve known about simple syrup but I’ve never tried to make it. Thanks for sharing 😊
I’m absolutely loving these coffee recipes you’ve been doing. As a beginner wanna be barista it’s getting me curious about playing around with different flavors
My mom really wanted to work at costa when she arrived in the uk. I want to work at a BIG coffe shop so i can complete my dreams for her. I want to be a barista, or doctor and if i become a doctor, ill always make such good coffe because of you!
My favorite local coffee stand has an orange latte I absolutely love. It's especially delicious cold, but I love it hot too. I'll have to make some orange syrup using your instructions. Thank you for the inspiration!
I'd like to add, make sure to clean and sanitize the bottles before bottling. I made a ginger and cinnamon syrup that my son loves for a ginger ale, just add it to sprite or 7up. Great ideas for syrups👍
@@nancynguyen8643 I make a simple syrup of equal parts water and sugar, add a cinnamon stick and small nub of ginger while the water and sugar come together over a low flame. You don't need to boil the mix just bring it up to a simmer, while continually stirring, turn it off and allow the mix to steep till cool. Strain and bottle.
Yeah, I just had to come back to say that the Lavender and Earl Grey one CHANGED MY LIFE!!! ‼🤯🥰 Been adding it to my mid-day Matcha, and it's ... AMAZING!!
one of my favorite dessert coffee shakes is a snickers bar. vanilla bean ice cream, espresso, chocolate, caramel, and go very light on peanut butter to get an accurate flavor instead of a peanut butter chocolate. a little goes a long way, but it is SOOOOO good, can be served as ice cream, milk shake, or i imagine you could possibly do an iced latte version with vanilla syrup and melt the peanut butter with a shot or two of espresso, and I haven't tried it hot yet so experiment if you dare, but the milk shake is my favorite cold dessert coffee
I generally do my berry syrups (don't drink coffee but it's great for other treats and drinks) with the following ratios 2 cups water 1 cup sugar 1 cup berries (usually raspberries) Cook all 3 on the stove, mushing the berries as they cook, and reducing to a consistency you enjoy. Also dollar stores tend to carry those bottles, FYI!
I like to make a cardamom, cinnamon, brown sugar syrup. I let it caramelize a little bit so it gets some of those slightly burnt sugar notes to go with the spices and it's so good
Thanks for another great video. On the first syrup though you said 2:1 sugar to water, proceeded to weight out 200g of sugar, said one half of that is 100g, and then said you’ve got 200g of water. I assume your syrup was in fact 2:1 when you weighed the water out?
These are great and I appreciate the attention to detail such as lighter sugars for lighter flavors and vice versa, kinda like with wine and meat. Whites for white meat and vice versa
The Spice House is my local spice shop. Excellent shop. If you like spice blends, Penzy's is also excellent. They have more of a nationwide and online presence. But it's all the same family, with a different view of how they want to run a business.
I've made your orange cinnamon syrup before, and I love adding it to my home latte :) However for my oranges I usually don't include the peels just because at the stores, they put that wax coating on them to protect them in shipping or something. So I usually just remove the peel and add only the pulp.
Fridge is best. How long they'll last really depends. The ones with dry spices will last longer than the ones with raspberries or orange. The water-sugar ratio is important too, simple syrups (1:1 ratio) will last up to a month but the rich syrup (2:1 200g sugar to 100g water) will be fine up to 6 months. Just make sure to clean bottles well, run them through hot dishwasher cycle or sterilize them before use. There are endless flavour combinations to try. Check out some youtube bartenders who tend to have great tips for home made syrups too. Like: th-cam.com/video/CvEDhkR6K14/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=AndersErickson
Awesome video! I was so used to your Shorts videos (which I love), so I didn't know you were this eloquent! Great job.... I'll definitely be trying that Orange Cardamom syrup...that sounds baller! Much love from Brazil!
Ok, so instantly as I finished watching your video, I rushed into my kitchen to try making some syrupfor myself, inspired by your video, the wonderful simplicity of the process, and the bananas on your counter. I didn't have fresh bananas, so I popped one of the freezer, cut it in pieces (removing the peel), and got my brand new scale that I purchased months ago out of it's box, ready to finally serve it's purpose. It's been about 20, 25 minutes since I've finished watching your video, and I'm currently hopping of joy everywhere as the result looks, smells and taste very promising! I'm eating the leftover, discared and caramelized banana pieces (I don't mind hot banana mush, it's tasty) as I'm waiting for the syrup to cool enough to get into my first homemade banana iced latte; I can't wait to find out if it holds as well in a drink as it seems to do on it's own! Thank you so much for opening my eyes on how incredibly simple it is to do this kind of syrup! I'm so excited to try out more recipes, and I would absolutely love if you shared more of these! * If anyone's curious; I also added a tad of vanilla extract to slightly adjust the taste, and used brown sugar, since it pairs well with bananas and as my sugar options were very limited (it was either that or white sugar).
These sound sooo good! I'm not a fan of bergamot anymore (yes I have had high quality Earl Grey tea, it just tastes awful now) so I would likely use Meyer lemons + lavender instead of Earl Grey + lavender. I've just made plain simple syrup so far, but I have many ideas
Fridge, especially for ones with fruit. They should be good for a few weeks, plain simple syrup (sugar+water) is usually good for up to a month, the fruit might shorten the shelf life. Though to be fair I haven't had any stay in the fridge long enough to be a concern before.
Have you ever tried to replicate these recipes with non sugar natural sweeteners such as monkfruit or stevia? I have mostly eliminated sugar from my diet and it would be interesting to find out how they would compare.
I am also interested in non sugar options. But it gets tricky because the sugar helps the flavor compounds mix with the water/coffee. I have had some success with low sugar plus another sweetener.
Ah yes, finally, a recipe for syrup I can use. I've been wanting to make one with very specific spices and never knew how to do it. The cinnamon and cloves one comes close, but I'll add some ginger, kardemom, nutmeg, and orange rinds as well. It's one of my fave spice combinations and I never managed to emulate the lattes/coffees that tasted like it because I didn't know how to catch the tastes of the spices in a syrup. Now I'm going to try.
I'm really late to this BUT I love fruit flavored coffees and I found this white chocolate raspberry hot chocolate mix and have been using it in my coffee and it's phenomenal. So consider trying hot chocolate mixes in your coffee!
I haven’t immediately gotten up to make something I saw on TH-cam like this in ages. I knew I was keeping these leftover hot sauce bottles for a reason!! I made the orange and cardamom you made, cos that sound3d divine, and then a cardamom, cinnamon and vanilla bean syrup. Cant wait to use!!!
Just saying hi! Just found this channel a few days ago, and I think it's lovely. I especially like your shorts, they're so calming. I hope you have a lovely day! :)
This looks awesome! Going to try these with some soy milk and coconut whipped cream as I have a family history of Cancer and need to avoid the estrogen and BLV in dairy. Thanks for sharing
Hey, just wanted to let you know if you're using oranges including the peel, in most places the regulations for pesticides are a lot looser for citrus fruits because you're not expected to eat the peel, the ideal solution is buying organic but that's obviously not accessible price wise for everybody, the next best thing is making sure you wash them thoroughly before you use them. I'm a somewhat new subscriber and I'm loving your content, stay safe!
This videos great! I just want to point out to anyone watching that you should use FOOD GRADE LAVENDER specifically. I've made this mistake in the past, learn from me!
Your videos are so comforting and I don't even understand why😭 like them so much. Definitely will try earl grey and lavander one, I love those ingredients 😍
My friend is from Ethiopia and has a family coffee farm. He brought me a bag of coffee his mother roasted. It smelled funny. It turns out they traditionally they roast their beans with cloves. I told my local roasters to give ut a try, but they blew me off. I would recommend giving it a try.
I had some masala chai spices kicking around from a recipe that was kinda meh and now I finally can use them up because of this video! Super appreciated!
The lavender Earl grey syrup with gin and lemon The cinnamon clove syrup with rye and orange bitters The rose raspberry syrup with tequila and lime The orange cardamom syrup with rum and lime
I either missed it or maybe you answered this elsewhere so apologies in advance, but how long do these syrups generally keep? And do they need refrigeration or can they be kept at room temp? Thank you for the wonderful videos!
If you sterilize the bottles they can be kept out of tht fridge as long as you stick to the 2:1 ratio. They can kept for awhile due to the sugar concentration, but I'm not sure how long
I’d keep all of these syrups in the fridge, especially with ingredients like fruits or any fresh herbs or spices. Dried spices and herbs will last longer in syrups. Transparent containers are essential so you can see if mold grows. I wouldn’t count on more than a few weeks of use without making the syrup rich and fortified. Syrups last longer when they’re made “rich” - ex., 2:1 sugar:water rather than 1:1. Another method is to fortify syrups with alcohol. I like to make very strong syrups using lots of extracts like vanilla, almond, and coconut. Approximately a tbsp per cup, maybe more depending on the flavor. Any extract will be mostly alcohol so they work to help preserve the syrup longer. If you don’t want to add a lot of flavor, you can also use a more neutral alcohol like vodka, or another alcohol for a mild flavor. I’ve enjoyed using rum here! Rich, fortified syrups without other ingredients will last many many months in the fridge. Dry ingredients will probably still last multiple months if it is rich and fortified while fresh ingredients like fruits should still be used more quickly.
Can't wait to attempt the orange and cardamon, and cinnamon clove syrups! They sound delish! My fave coffee syrup was in Costa (UK, autumn 2022) they had a maple hazel combo that I loved. I've not managed to find a pre-made syrup. I need to spend some time and see if I can make something nice with Hazelnut syrup and maple syrup. Do you have any tips on making nutty syrups from your simple syrup?
Since maple syrup is already the correct form, I wonder if you could just infuse it directly with the hazelnuts. I would try toasting the nuts, then steeping them in heated maple syrup. If you try it, I'd love to hear how it turns out.
Because I cant recall hearing it in the vid (if im wrong, I apologize!) but Simple Syrups and thus these syrups can be left out at room temp but will go bad faster and thus should be put in the fridge. My googling was "a few days at room temp, a month or two in the fridge" was the general conclusion I found. It should be common sense, but it crossed my mind because store bought is often fine to leave on your counter and figured others might have a similar question! Look forward to trying the combos you suggested, though the idea of a fruity coffee sounds so.. odd.. I suppose you cant knock it till you've tried it though! ^.^
Loved this video. I really enjoy making my own syrups and sauces for my Iced coffee, and Lattes. I really enjoy Fall flavors the most. I make a yummy Butterbeer-inspired Sauce and I noticed the trend of using Seltzer/soda of some kind with Cold Brews so I did a Butterbeer cold Brew with Cream Soda mixed with a little Butterscotch sauce with a Salted Butterscotch or Caramel Cold Foam. It's freaking Magical. I make an awesome Caramel & Pumpkin one that I enjoy all year round.
I'm so gonna finally make vanilla syrup (vanilla's so difficult to get into coffee if you don't do something like this it seems). But what spices would fit vanilla great?
A 2:1 simple syrup is usually stable for up to 6 months however that can change when you add additions like fruit juice, I’d keep an eye on it and make small batches that are consumable in a week or two. I usually recommend storing syrups in the fridge regardless of sugar content.
I really don’t know if you see my comments on the last video but I'm so happy do you upload a video like this because this kind of videos helps me a lot and I really appreciate it thank you ❤
Ohhhh so I live across the street from a cafe and they save some of their empty glass bottles from the simple syrups that they use for me. This way I can help recycle/reuse and also make my own simple syrup’s. I would have to say that my favorite is peppermint (I’m addicted) after that would be one that I make with Mulling spices, sometimes I add some rum extract to it and that’s nice to 😊
Damit your eyebrows are so pretty and your voice is so nice to listen too, the video ended and i didnt get how you made the flavours😂 The rasberry rose latte sounds so delicious i should rewatch it!
A fun inclusion I like to add to my lavender syrup is a bit of butterfly pea, and just a little bit of lemon/lime juice. Makes the syrup a "magical" purple color. Really doesn't do much after it is in the late, but it sure is nice in the bottle. (Just don't use too much butterfly pea or the taste will be a bit vegital)
It's funny how the clock in the background kept betraying your "let's wait for 10 minutes" segue ways.. 🙂 I thought it was cute. Love your videos! Thanks for the recipes, I will definitely try the orange/cardamom one.. thanks!
Hi Morgan! Do simple syrups for different purposes have a different sugar to water ratio? A lot of simple syrup recipes I see online are 1:1 ratio so I guess I’m just wondering why you prefer 2:1? Also, can you make simple syrups with liquid sweeteners like maple syrup or honey? If so, how would you tweak the ratio? Thanks so much for your creative videos & flavor combos! Love your energy. :)
I can't answer the question about liquid sweeteners, but in terms of ratios, it affects the sweetness and how long the syrup can can last and also how you store it. 1:1 is less concentrated than 2:1 and it is not shelf stable. It has to be kept in the fridge, but it is also less likely to crystalize. 2:1 placed in a sterilized container are shelf stable and can last a long time when taken care of correctly (aka no contamination). It is more concentrated. One downside to a 2:1 simple syrup is that it can crystalize. You can just remelt it to make it useable again though. Hope this helps!
I know you can definitely make honey syrups with a similar process (slightly different ratio if I remember correctly) but I don't know about maple syrup
@@pleasedontgetscurvy8154 you can probably just warm the maple syrup and steep whatever else you want in it to add flavor. Maybe with a small amount of water if it's too thick for your liking.

A 2:1 sugar to water ratio is shelf stable, as long as the additions like fresh fruit don't increase the non-sugar content beyond this ratio.
I like to add a spoonful of 100 proof vodka to my syrups. Doesn’t really affect the flavor and does a lot to help extend shelf life

Avoiding cooking the pith would avoid any underlying bitter notes you may get depending on the orange.

For particularly juicy fresh fruits, you'll want to use more sugar and allow this process to take place in the fridge to avoid things trying to grow in your syrup. If you want to make a fruit syrup faster, you can always choose to slice or muddle the fruit to puncture the skins and allow the sugar a more direct avenue to rip the moisture from them. Strain thoroughly through a fine sieve, tea towel, cheesecloth, or nut milk bag and bottle for later enjoyment. If you want to infuse spices into it in addition to fruits, herbs, or zest; then toast and lightly crush your spices into the jar with your fresh ingredients and leave it in there until the syrup is complete before straining out with the rest of the fruit or herb debris. To infuse the flavor of nuts and seeds that aren't as pungent as most spices, or if you want to infuse only spices, then you'll get better results by cracking or crushing them and boiling them in syrup to extract their flavor. Hazelnuts are a good example for this. Plus, if you use a heavy simple syrup, once you're done perfuming the syrup with the nuts, you can strain them out, set them aside to cool, and enjoy them later. They should form a layer of little sugar crystals on them as they dry. If you want a sweet and salty snack, make sure you sprinkle a bit of salt on them before they fully cool.
One thing to note: Earl Grey pairs particularly well with vanilla, especially so if dairy is involved at some point, so slicing, scraping, and steeping a couple of vanilla pods into the Earl Grey syrup would definitely be a good idea. I would also go lighter on the lavender, as it has a tendency to make things taste like soap if you go to heavy with it. There are quite a few food grade dried flowers that you could mix with the lavender to complement it and add additional complexity. My personal preference will always be for honeysuckle, but to each their own.
I've found myself coming back to this one comment a lot the past few days. Thanks for taking the time to write this
@@christopherclark1854 Look up some videos on Korean cheong. It's fruit syrup made the way I described and they have at least several hundred years of history preparing this traditional product. Cheong is a favorite mixer for alcohol and you can even brew wine from a cheong if you wish to. It's also used as an ingredient in cooking instead of sugar (ginger, galangal, garlic, and various other herbs can provide you with very interesting results if you can keep them from fermenting too much and exploding) and can also be used as the syrup for beverages or added to tea. The options are quite varied.
I find that 'tea sugar' AKA beet sugar, is actually a lot more neutral than cane sugar. I didn't realize how different until I tried tea with them side by side and realized that even 'white sugar' has hints of molasses.
Also, strawberry syrup is even more easy. You literally don't have to cook at all. Just sprinkle sliced berries with a generous amount of white sugar and put it in the fridge. Come back the next day and you'll have syrup (which you can reduce in the pot if you want it thicker).
Doesn't beet sugar have some issue with it or something? I honestly don't remember why I'm against it.
Also, you should look into the process of making cheongs- My favorite I made was green apple flavored. You take your fruit, preferably one with a higher water content, and cut it up to have a higher surface area. You also take its weight in sugar and mix them in a jar, so the fruit is entirely covered with sugar and won't touch the air (so it doesn't mold). You put it in your fridge for a few weeks, stirring every few days I think, and the sugar liquefies and makes a nice syrup- You can strain the fruit or use it as a garnish, or have it in whatever drink you're making if it's cold.
Cheongs tend to be fermented, but it's just a generally good way to make syrups.
Sorry for my poor grammar, my brain is fried, lol.
@@GaySatanicClowns i'm not sure but i do know around my area we grow sugar beets and it does NOT smell pleasant when it comes time to turn it into sugar lol
And pop those soft sweet macerated strawberries into your bowl of Frosted Flakes or some pancakes 😊
I really like agave for coffee, it's even sweeter and more pleasant than sugar imo and you don't have to worry about dissolving
Fun fact, while most modern recipes for simple syrup suggest equal parts water and sugar it is actually much more likely that the historical recipes were 2 parts (or more) sugar to 1 part water. If your recipe is at least 2/3 sugar it was shelf stable while only 1/2 was not.
Can confirm, I have homemade vanilla bean syrup I made using slightly over a 2:1 sugar:water ratio and it's stayed looking good as new for over a month at room temp
My family farms raspberries, so I’m always glad to find a new use for them. We always end up with quite the surplus.
I purchased a cheap espresso machine worth $200 and after 6 months of practice and your recepie and tips beleive me I fell absolutely no need to go to Starbucks or any other cafe atleast for coffee , still learning how to make a rosseta, made my first heart a week ago 😍
I am a matcha lover so that lavender earl grey and rose/raspberry flavor is going to be just amazing ! 💚🍵
I'm going to try it with a good sencha tea. But sencha doesn't like being boiled, so I will let it boil with the lavender for ten min, turn off thr heat, add the sencha, and let it steep for another 10 minutes or so. Should work. Don't think I would use it with coffee, but that leaves many other options....
@@jackieknits61 I don't think you need the boiling, just enough heat to dissolve the sugar so you could make it at lower green tea temperatures. But it probably wont have as good of a shelf life as boiled and would probably be better kept in the fridge
@@jackieknits61 a local tea shop of mine offers sencha blended with sakura blossoms and if that's something you can acquire, i think that would also make a lovely syrup!
An ingredient I've really been liking lately in coffee is Orgeat--almond syrup. Mostly a cocktail ingredient, but I think it goes well with coffee and I feel like I've rarely seen it recommended. If anyone enjoys hazelnut coffee, this is like its grown up cousin. Nutty, but also almost something floral. With so many folks going for almond milk, it seems fitting.
And if you bring it back to it's cocktail roots, I'd shake over ice 30ml espresso, 15ml orgeat, and one's preference of between 15 and 30ml rum.
Orgeat is also very easy to make at home and 100 times tastier than any store bought version
I found a cherry almond flavored coffee that I LOVE but it’s overpriced and “discontinued”(I suspect until next year) so I’m browsing TH-cam trying to figure out how to best make a cherry almond syrup to replicate or hopefully improve that flavor.
@@katarinajanoskova how
I'm a big fan of either almond or hazelnut in my coffee, especially if chocolate is also involved. ;)
can you share a recipe or your recipe?
Definitely gonna try that cardamom syrup 👀 my favourite syrup is a lemongrass ginger syrup! mix with some lemon juice and sparkling water over ice for a super simple lemonade.
Wait I need to make that, what proportions to you recommend?
@@nyxh.7567 I usually kinda eyeball it, but about 3-4 stalks of lemongrass (make sure to crush them up a little before), about 5 thick slices of ginger, one cup of water and sugar.
then for the lemonade i like it pretty sour, so i use equal parts syrup and lemon juice.
You can play around with it to see what you like best :) i hope you like it!
Okay so I can be honest... I wanna see you attempt a homemade Irish Cream syrup. That is my favorite flavor for coffee, period. I'm obsessed with it. And having some kind of recipe to try and make it at home would be amazing.
Me second that!
I would also love this - Starbucks has their Irish crème cold foam that I LOVE
I'm Irish and never heard of this! Is it baileys? I know that's alcoholic, but it's the only "Irish cream" I can think of 😅
@@charmedpipper1 yep, it’s basically like a baileys flavor without the alcohol
@@sarahroth4052 as a barista, it’s sadly not even that popular. My store still has so much and I’m vv close to just taking one when we toss em bc it’s so good
I used to make rosemary vanilla syrup for the café I used to work at and it was amazing! If you make it you have to use a lot of rosemary and only the leaves, don't use the stems or it tastes bitter and less flavourful
Love rosemary, and would love to have the receipt please 😊. Thank you!
I’m going to have to try this!
My favorite latte I’ve ever had was from a small local place in Indianapolis and it was a Pineapple Ube latte - i always got it iced. The ube made the latte beautiful because it was turn the milk into a lavender color. The end result was very similar to a vanilla latte with a slightly different flavor profile, would recommend and would love to see you try to recreate !!
I often break open a cardamom pod and put a few seeds in Turkish coffee, matcha latte, or hot chocolate. It really adds to the taste.
Can’t wait to try these. I’ve known about simple syrup but I’ve never tried to make it.
Thanks for sharing 😊
Morgan's videos never fail to uplift my mood. Keep on doing your wonderful work and making people smile :)
If the orange cardamom SS ratio is 2:1, wouldn't it be 100g water?
A brain fart, you’re correct
I love Morgan's passion for what she does in every shorts and vids she uploads!
I’m absolutely loving these coffee recipes you’ve been doing. As a beginner wanna be barista it’s getting me curious about playing around with different flavors
My mom really wanted to work at costa when she arrived in the uk. I want to work at a BIG coffe shop so i can complete my dreams for her. I want to be a barista, or doctor and if i become a doctor, ill always make such good coffe because of you!
I've made some brown sugar star anise syrup for coffee before and it's a winner!
That sounds amazing. I was thinking about star anise when she made the cinnamon, clove syrup.
That sounds amazing! I am going to try that for sure!
My favorite local coffee stand has an orange latte I absolutely love. It's especially delicious cold, but I love it hot too. I'll have to make some orange syrup using your instructions. Thank you for the inspiration!
I'd like to add, make sure to clean and sanitize the bottles before bottling. I made a ginger and cinnamon syrup that my son loves for a ginger ale, just add it to sprite or 7up. Great ideas for syrups👍
🤔 adding honey and warm tea with your syrup would be great for fall . Cold and flu season. May I have the receipt of ginger cinnamon syrup? Thanks
@@nancynguyen8643 I make a simple syrup of equal parts water and sugar, add a cinnamon stick and small nub of ginger while the water and sugar come together over a low flame. You don't need to boil the mix just bring it up to a simmer, while continually stirring, turn it off and allow the mix to steep till cool. Strain and bottle.
Recently made raspberry and bay leaf infused syrup. The savory yet hint of sweetness from the bay helps them work together beautifully with espresso~
Yeah, I just had to come back to say that the Lavender and Earl Grey one CHANGED MY LIFE!!! ‼🤯🥰
Been adding it to my mid-day Matcha, and it's ... AMAZING!!
one of my favorite dessert coffee shakes is a snickers bar. vanilla bean ice cream, espresso, chocolate, caramel, and go very light on peanut butter to get an accurate flavor instead of a peanut butter chocolate. a little goes a long way, but it is SOOOOO good, can be served as ice cream, milk shake, or i imagine you could possibly do an iced latte version with vanilla syrup and melt the peanut butter with a shot or two of espresso, and I haven't tried it hot yet so experiment if you dare, but the milk shake is my favorite cold dessert coffee
I generally do my berry syrups (don't drink coffee but it's great for other treats and drinks) with the following ratios
2 cups water
1 cup sugar
1 cup berries (usually raspberries)
Cook all 3 on the stove, mushing the berries as they cook, and reducing to a consistency you enjoy.
Also dollar stores tend to carry those bottles, FYI!

I like to make a cardamom, cinnamon, brown sugar syrup. I let it caramelize a little bit so it gets some of those slightly burnt sugar notes to go with the spices and it's so good
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment you’re a good egg claim a freebie on my tele_gram via the handle above ....☝️☝️
Thanks for another great video. On the first syrup though you said 2:1 sugar to water, proceeded to weight out 200g of sugar, said one half of that is 100g, and then said you’ve got 200g of water. I assume your syrup was in fact 2:1 when you weighed the water out?
These are great and I appreciate the attention to detail such as lighter sugars for lighter flavors and vice versa, kinda like with wine and meat. Whites for white meat and vice versa
The Spice House is my local spice shop. Excellent shop. If you like spice blends, Penzy's is also excellent. They have more of a nationwide and online presence. But it's all the same family, with a different view of how they want to run a business.
I've made your orange cinnamon syrup before, and I love adding it to my home latte :) However for my oranges I usually don't include the peels just because at the stores, they put that wax coating on them to protect them in shipping or something. So I usually just remove the peel and add only the pulp.

I tried this with vanilla and cranberries and it was delicious 😋 Thanks Morgan!
This is fun! Dumb question: do you store it in the fridge or can you store it in a shelf? And how long do they last? Thanks!
Fridge is best. How long they'll last really depends. The ones with dry spices will last longer than the ones with raspberries or orange. The water-sugar ratio is important too, simple syrups (1:1 ratio) will last up to a month but the rich syrup (2:1 200g sugar to 100g water) will be fine up to 6 months. Just make sure to clean bottles well, run them through hot dishwasher cycle or sterilize them before use.
There are endless flavour combinations to try. Check out some youtube bartenders who tend to have great tips for home made syrups too.

Ok, so instantly as I finished watching your video, I rushed into my kitchen to try making some syrupfor myself, inspired by your video, the wonderful simplicity of the process, and the bananas on your counter. I didn't have fresh bananas, so I popped one of the freezer, cut it in pieces (removing the peel), and got my brand new scale that I purchased months ago out of it's box, ready to finally serve it's purpose. It's been about 20, 25 minutes since I've finished watching your video, and I'm currently hopping of joy everywhere as the result looks, smells and taste very promising! I'm eating the leftover, discared and caramelized banana pieces (I don't mind hot banana mush, it's tasty) as I'm waiting for the syrup to cool enough to get into my first homemade banana iced latte; I can't wait to find out if it holds as well in a drink as it seems to do on it's own!
Thank you so much for opening my eyes on how incredibly simple it is to do this kind of syrup! I'm so excited to try out more recipes, and I would absolutely love if you shared more of these!
* If anyone's curious; I also added a tad of vanilla extract to slightly adjust the taste, and used brown sugar, since it pairs well with bananas and as my sugar options were very limited (it was either that or white sugar).
These sound sooo good! I'm not a fan of bergamot anymore (yes I have had high quality Earl Grey tea, it just tastes awful now) so I would likely use Meyer lemons + lavender instead of Earl Grey + lavender. I've just made plain simple syrup so far, but I have many ideas
Honestly, I had to click just because that thumbnail was STUNNING.
I'll try the first syrup, I have the ingredients weee!
My favorite latte I ever had was chai lavender. I loved it so much.
Looks so good! How long do these typically last and do you keep them room temp or store them in the fridge?
Fridge, especially for ones with fruit. They should be good for a few weeks, plain simple syrup (sugar+water) is usually good for up to a month, the fruit might shorten the shelf life. Though to be fair I haven't had any stay in the fridge long enough to be a concern before.
I’m not gonna be showing how I pour this : proceeds to show it , we love you and your pouring habe is lovely!
Have you ever tried to replicate these recipes with non sugar natural sweeteners such as monkfruit or stevia? I have mostly eliminated sugar from my diet and it would be interesting to find out how they would compare.
You could do something similar with allulose or agave
I am also interested in non sugar options. But it gets tricky because the sugar helps the flavor compounds mix with the water/coffee. I have had some success with low sugar plus another sweetener.
You could maybe make a flavoured water (same recipe but without sugar) and adding the non sugar sweeteners seperate
Ah yes, finally, a recipe for syrup I can use. I've been wanting to make one with very specific spices and never knew how to do it. The cinnamon and cloves one comes close, but I'll add some ginger, kardemom, nutmeg, and orange rinds as well. It's one of my fave spice combinations and I never managed to emulate the lattes/coffees that tasted like it because I didn't know how to catch the tastes of the spices in a syrup. Now I'm going to try.
I'm really late to this BUT I love fruit flavored coffees and I found this white chocolate raspberry hot chocolate mix and have been using it in my coffee and it's phenomenal. So consider trying hot chocolate mixes in your coffee!

Thank you for this video. I did a half honey and cinnamon syrup and a blueberry and strawberry syrup they are yummy
I just made the orange cardamom syrup and it might just be my go to syrup for coffee. Really good.
One of my favorite tea blends is called Cardamom French Toast. So, the idea of Cardamom syrup is exciting.
I haven’t immediately gotten up to make something I saw on TH-cam like this in ages. I knew I was keeping these leftover hot sauce bottles for a reason!! I made the orange and cardamom you made, cos that sound3d divine, and then a cardamom, cinnamon and vanilla bean syrup. Cant wait to use!!!
Yes! Someone else that uses a hot sauce bottle!
I'm just wondering, how would you do a nutty flavored syrup like hazelnut or almonds?
Just saying hi! Just found this channel a few days ago, and I think it's lovely. I especially like your shorts, they're so calming. I hope you have a lovely day! :)

You should look into a silicone kitchen funnel, makes pouring into small bottles much easier.
This looks awesome! Going to try these with some soy milk and coconut whipped cream as I have a family history of Cancer and need to avoid the estrogen and BLV in dairy. Thanks for sharing
I would suggest another milk such as coconut or homemade almond milk in place of soy milk.
Hey, just wanted to let you know if you're using oranges including the peel, in most places the regulations for pesticides are a lot looser for citrus fruits because you're not expected to eat the peel, the ideal solution is buying organic but that's obviously not accessible price wise for everybody, the next best thing is making sure you wash them thoroughly before you use them. I'm a somewhat new subscriber and I'm loving your content, stay safe!
This videos great! I just want to point out to anyone watching that you should use FOOD GRADE LAVENDER specifically. I've made this mistake in the past, learn from me!
You are such a wonderful person! Thanks for sharing such a great video with the world! My coffees are much better now! God bless you!
Hi Morgan, thanks a lot for your videos. Do you think we could replace sugar with some kind of sweetener for people who cannot eat sugar?
The raspberry/rose sounds intriguing! I've never heard of that combination before and am excited to try it!
Your videos are so comforting and I don't even understand why😭 like them so much. Definitely will try earl grey and lavander one, I love those ingredients 😍
Challenge for Morgan drinks sugar: share some delicious sweetener free ideas!
I haven't tried it with any liquids but I'm a sucker for honey lavender. Easily my favorite ice cream
I just made the raspberry rose and it tastes delicious!
You just gave me, so many great ideas for desserts!!!
All these flavoure combinations sounds amazing, I bet they do well in mousses and cakes as well.

My friend is from Ethiopia and has a family coffee farm. He brought me a bag of coffee his mother roasted. It smelled funny. It turns out they traditionally they roast their beans with cloves. I told my local roasters to give ut a try, but they blew me off. I would recommend giving it a try.
I would love to see more ideas and recipes for syrups. These all sound lovely.
You can make up your own too
I love typical Indian Chai version: cardamom, cloves, star anise, cinnamon, black pepper and ginger - so yummy
I'm interested to see that you didn't toast the spices before using them. I love the idea of the lavender/Earl Grey!
I had some masala chai spices kicking around from a recipe that was kinda meh and now I finally can use them up because of this video! Super appreciated!
The lavender Earl grey syrup with gin and lemon
The cinnamon clove syrup with rye and orange bitters
The rose raspberry syrup with tequila and lime
The orange cardamom syrup with rum and lime
The music-video combination is genius, I love it!
I either missed it or maybe you answered this elsewhere so apologies in advance, but how long do these syrups generally keep? And do they need refrigeration or can they be kept at room temp? Thank you for the wonderful videos!
I am wondering this too!
If you sterilize the bottles they can be kept out of tht fridge as long as you stick to the 2:1 ratio. They can kept for awhile due to the sugar concentration, but I'm not sure how long
I’d keep all of these syrups in the fridge, especially with ingredients like fruits or any fresh herbs or spices. Dried spices and herbs will last longer in syrups. Transparent containers are essential so you can see if mold grows. I wouldn’t count on more than a few weeks of use without making the syrup rich and fortified.
Syrups last longer when they’re made “rich” - ex., 2:1 sugar:water rather than 1:1.
Another method is to fortify syrups with alcohol. I like to make very strong syrups using lots of extracts like vanilla, almond, and coconut. Approximately a tbsp per cup, maybe more depending on the flavor. Any extract will be mostly alcohol so they work to help preserve the syrup longer. If you don’t want to add a lot of flavor, you can also use a more neutral alcohol like vodka, or another alcohol for a mild flavor. I’ve enjoyed using rum here!
Rich, fortified syrups without other ingredients will last many many months in the fridge. Dry ingredients will probably still last multiple months if it is rich and fortified while fresh ingredients like fruits should still be used more quickly.
I had a really delicious rosemary-lavender iced latte at a cafe in Denver and I look forward to replicating the syrup now that I know how!
Can't wait to attempt the orange and cardamon, and cinnamon clove syrups!
They sound delish!
My fave coffee syrup was in Costa (UK, autumn 2022) they had a maple hazel combo that I loved. I've not managed to find a pre-made syrup. I need to spend some time and see if I can make something nice with Hazelnut syrup and maple syrup.
Do you have any tips on making nutty syrups from your simple syrup?
Since maple syrup is already the correct form, I wonder if you could just infuse it directly with the hazelnuts. I would try toasting the nuts, then steeping them in heated maple syrup. If you try it, I'd love to hear how it turns out.
“I don’t like to make things easy for myself “ 😁 i love your personality, you’re so cute
Because I cant recall hearing it in the vid (if im wrong, I apologize!) but Simple Syrups and thus these syrups can be left out at room temp but will go bad faster and thus should be put in the fridge. My googling was "a few days at room temp, a month or two in the fridge" was the general conclusion I found. It should be common sense, but it crossed my mind because store bought is often fine to leave on your counter and figured others might have a similar question!
Look forward to trying the combos you suggested, though the idea of a fruity coffee sounds so.. odd.. I suppose you cant knock it till you've tried it though! ^.^
How long do they last or how long can you keep them?
Loved this video. I really enjoy making my own syrups and sauces for my Iced coffee, and Lattes. I really enjoy Fall flavors the most. I make a yummy Butterbeer-inspired Sauce and I noticed the trend of using Seltzer/soda of some kind with Cold Brews so I did a Butterbeer cold Brew with Cream Soda mixed with a little Butterscotch sauce with a Salted Butterscotch or Caramel Cold Foam. It's freaking Magical. I make an awesome Caramel & Pumpkin one that I enjoy all year round.
Caramel and pumpkin syrups sound yummy, may I have the receipt? Thank you.
I'm so gonna finally make vanilla syrup (vanilla's so difficult to get into coffee if you don't do something like this it seems). But what spices would fit vanilla great?
Just made a cherry hibiscus cacao syrup inspired by your videos can't wait to try it out!
The rose and raspberry really sounds good!
What's the best way to store these syrups and the shelf life?
A 2:1 simple syrup is usually stable for up to 6 months however that can change when you add additions like fruit juice, I’d keep an eye on it and make small batches that are consumable in a week or two. I usually recommend storing syrups in the fridge regardless of sugar content.
My fav is rosemary syrup. It’s an unexpected combo for coffee but it’s so delicious, esp with dark roast coffees.
I really don’t know if you see my comments on the last video but I'm so happy do you upload a video like this because this kind of videos helps me a lot and I really appreciate it thank you ❤
Ohhhh so I live across the street from a cafe and they save some of their empty glass bottles from the simple syrups that they use for me. This way I can help recycle/reuse and also make my own simple syrup’s. I would have to say that my favorite is peppermint (I’m addicted) after that would be one that I make with Mulling spices, sometimes I add some rum extract to it and that’s nice to 😊

A fun inclusion I like to add to my lavender syrup is a bit of butterfly pea, and just a little bit of lemon/lime juice. Makes the syrup a "magical" purple color. Really doesn't do much after it is in the late, but it sure is nice in the bottle. (Just don't use too much butterfly pea or the taste will be a bit vegital)
This is so cool! I want to find the video where you make pumpkin spice syrup
I just told my wife “prepare to be spoiled”
I suscribed to your channel😬
Looove your videos!
Saludos desde México!
I don't know if i missed this in the video, but how long do these syrups last?
It's funny how the clock in the background kept betraying your "let's wait for 10 minutes" segue ways.. 🙂 I thought it was cute. Love your videos! Thanks for the recipes, I will definitely try the orange/cardamom one.. thanks!
Hey Morgan, wondering how long these syrups last? & do they need to be stored in the fridge or…?
If you use a sterilized bottle, 2:1 simple syrups don't need to be refrigerated
Hi Morgan! Do simple syrups for different purposes have a different sugar to water ratio? A lot of simple syrup recipes I see online are 1:1 ratio so I guess I’m just wondering why you prefer 2:1? Also, can you make simple syrups with liquid sweeteners like maple syrup or honey? If so, how would you tweak the ratio? Thanks so much for your creative videos & flavor combos! Love your energy. :)
I can't answer the question about liquid sweeteners, but in terms of ratios, it affects the sweetness and how long the syrup can can last and also how you store it. 1:1 is less concentrated than 2:1 and it is not shelf stable. It has to be kept in the fridge, but it is also less likely to crystalize. 2:1 placed in a sterilized container are shelf stable and can last a long time when taken care of correctly (aka no contamination). It is more concentrated. One downside to a 2:1 simple syrup is that it can crystalize. You can just remelt it to make it useable again though. Hope this helps!
I know you can definitely make honey syrups with a similar process (slightly different ratio if I remember correctly) but I don't know about maple syrup
@@pleasedontgetscurvy8154 you can probably just warm the maple syrup and steep whatever else you want in it to add flavor. Maybe with a small amount of water if it's too thick for your liking.
what is their shelf life? really want to try making them but I don't want them to go to waste! also thank you for always putting out great content
I love your voice and the style of the video! Thank youuuu for level up my coffee game at home!!! ❤
I actually make lavender & earl grey syrup all the time!!! I am so intrigued. You're so cool 😎🤍
