Add the sugar and water to a saucepan and mix together.
Heat on medium and let it simmer until the sugar completely dissolves. You'll know because the liquid will turn clear instead of cloudy.
Let the simple syrup cool, then transfer it to a glass jar or container to store.
Notes
The ratio for this recipe is 1:1, and you can use this ratio to make more or less if needed. You can add almost any flavor to your syrup, see the blog post above for specifics and pro tips to make them really come through. You can find some of my favorite combinations in the blog post above. Happy Baking!
