Vanilla syrup is very easy to make. This would also make a fun gift from your kitchen.

In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar.

3

Drop those into the saucepan. Cut the bean pods in half and drop those in as well.

Discard the bean pods.

If you don’t have access to vanilla beans, you can still make this. Just make it the same way, but increase the vanilla extract to 2 1/2 teaspoons.
