Homemade Syrup

Better than store bought and seriously cheaper than pure maple syrup.

• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1 cup white sugar
•  1 cup cup water
• 1 Tablespoon butter
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla
•  a pinch of sea salt

Bring sugars and water to a boil, cook and stir for two minutes. Once the sugar is dissolved, stir in butter, 1 teaspoon of no alcohol vanilla extract or maple extract and a pinch of salt.
