How to Make Vanilla Syrup for Coffee (and customize it)
🖤Whether you’re a coffee connoisseur looking to up your coffee game, or you’d like to save some money while flavoring your morning coffee, this homemade vanilla syrup recipe is for you!
With just four ingredients and a few minutes of your time, you can make a syrup that would cost you two or three times as much to buy in the store.
Not only is it relatively simple to make, but you’ll also be surprised with its ability to give drinks a burst of flavor. Plus I’ll go over different types of vanilla you can use to flavor this (vanilla extract, vanilla bean paste, and a whole vanilla bean), and other ways to customize it!

🖤VANILLA SYRUP RECIPE:
â—¼Ingredients:
1 cup sugar (see note)
1 cup water
1 pinch salt (optional)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract, vanilla bean paste, or 1 whole vanilla bean
â—¼Instructions:
â—¼To Make with Extract or Paste:
Place the sugar, water, and salt in small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Turn heat down to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes, until all of the sugar dissolves.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste.
Allow to cool a bit before pouring into a glass airtight container.
â—¼To Make with a Whole Vanilla Bean:
Split the vanilla bean in half lengthwise, leaving one end intact.
Place the sugar, water, salt, and vanilla bean in small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Turn heat down to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes, until all of the sugar dissolves.
Remove from heat, cover, and allow to steep for 10 minutes.
You can either discard the vanilla bean, or put it in your storage container.
â—¼To Use in Drinks:
For each pump of vanilla syrup, use 1/2 tablespoon of your homemade syrup.
â—¼To Store:
Store in an airtight container on the counter for up to 3-5 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. If you keep the whole vanilla bean in the syrup, make sure to store in the refrigerator.
â—¼Notes
To make a rich simple syrup, increase the sugar to 2 cups. This will result in a thicker syrup, which could clog up a pump, but it will also last longer.
