Vanilla Caramel Syrup - For Coffee or Espresso image

This will replace the expensive syrup you buy to make flavored coffee or espresso. I think it is as good as "Torani" or "Davinci". This recipe will nearly fill an empty 23 oz. bottle.

Yield 21 fluid ounces

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups sugar
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 cups hot water (from your tap)
2 vanilla beans
6 teaspoons vanilla extract
6 teaspoons caramel extract

Steps:

  • Slice vanilla beans lengthwise with a sharp knife, use sharp edge of knife to scrape out the inside of the bean against the cutting board.
  • Put the scrapings and the outer beans in a sauce pan.
  • Put all other ingredients in the pan and heat on low stirring often for about 10 minutes.
  • Turn heat up to medium for a few more minutes (3-5) stirring constantly.
  • Do not boil.
  • Filter your hot syrup through a Melitta and coffee filter or through a strainer and cheese cloth.
  • This is to remove the bean skins and any sediment.
  • Cool syrup and pour into a tall glass bottle, an old wine bottle or empty coffee syrup bottles work great and are the right size.
