Yield 4 servings (5 1/2 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup sugar
1 cup water

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, water, star anise, and cinnamon sticks over medium heat. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and allow the syrup to cool, about 1 hour.
