Simple syrup is a liquid sweetener made by dissolving equal parts sugar and water, typically heated until the sugar fully dissolves. A staple in beverages like cocktails, teas, and iced coffees, it originates from classic culinary techniques used to create smooth, blendable sweetness without granulated residue. Found in cuisines globally, particularly in mixology and baking, its neutral flavor makes it a versatile addition to recipes. Nutritionally, simple syrup is high in calories and carbohydrates due to its sugar content, offering quick energy but little else in terms of vitamins or minerals. Overconsumption can contribute to weight gain and blood sugar spikes, making it a less health-conscious choice for regular use. However, it can be enjoyed in moderation or adapted with alternative sweeteners for reduced calorie impact.
