This syrup is great! I don't use it myself but make it for my kids for their coffee. It is better than store bought.

Looks great! I'm going to make it for Christmas presents. Should it be stored in the fridge? And how long will it last?

For the crystallization problem, add about 1 tbs of lemon juice when you are cooking the sugar & water. I do this when making syrup for baklava to prevent crystallizing and you don't taste the lemon in the final syrup.

This is an awesome recipe. I start each day with a latte flavored with this vanilla syrup. It is wonderful. No more store bought vanilla syrup for me. My teenagers love it too. They use it to flavor their milk shakes. Thanks, Paula!!

So, can you use Splenda to make sugar free?

Delicious! Wonderful in a latte, but do you have trouble with it crystallizing? Mine crystallized overnite, and has to be microwaved to melt before each use. What am I doing wrong???
