Vanilla, Mint and Cranberry

Infused simple syrups are especially fun to experiment with during the holidays when flavors like peppermint and cranberries are popular. This year, make mixology easier for friends by gifting them homemade brews. Infused vanilla simple syrup is perfect for the coffee-lover, mint is a flawless addition to a glass of iced tea and cranberry syrup takes any cocktail from bland to grand.
