Ahhhhhh.... good old sugar water. This is a staple at my house. I keep a bottle of it in the fridge at all times for tea. My family and friends are the pickiest when it comes to sweet tea - so I just make a pitcher of unsweetened tea and everyone just sweetens it to their liking.



My mom used to fix this and add some drops of maple flavoring way back when for our pancakes and waffles. I did it too when kids were little and money tight. Works just fine!!!!


Hi, here's what I do with it. I add a teaspoonful of lemon juice and lemon peel in it (sometimes I add a piece of cinnamon stick and a few cloves and bring to boil for 3 minutes). I keep it in the refrigerator and I wet my sponge cakes with it.


Cocktails? What time? Can we make it Friday? I buy this.. no more. You just saved me $$$$$$!


I add this to my cranberry cordial.. thanks great recipe!!


Perfect! I'm on my way to the kitchen right now to make this!

Thanx, for the recipe.
