How can I make different coffee-flavoured syrups?

You can easily buy extracts on line or from LorAnn Oils and create any variety of flavours by simply changing out the vanilla for a different flavour and keeping the rest of the recipe the same. Just be aware that different extract companies have different potencies so you may need less of the extract when compared to vanilla extract.

Do I have to make this sugar-free?

No. If you do not want to make this flavoured coffee syrup recipe sugar-free or keto-friendly, feel free to use regular sugar instead. Just make sure that you simmer the syrup long enough to fully dissolve the sugar.

How do I use this Homemade Sugar-free Coffee Syrup?

You can add this to any type of keto shake, protein shake, hot coffee or even to hot cocoa. This syrup is also delicious to soak cakes with.

How long will this coffee syrup last?

When stored in the fridge in an airtight container, the coffee syrup should last easily up to a month.

How much vanilla extract do I add?

As you can tell from the recipe, the vanilla extract varies from 1-3 tablespoons depending on how "vanilla-forward" you want your syrup as well as how strong your vanilla extract is since each brand (as well the age of your vanilla extract) can create different concentrations of flavours.

Can I make this into a concentrated coffee syrup?

Yes. In order to make this more concentrated, simply reduce the amount of water by half.
