Who’s in the mood for some Homemade Vanilla Coffee Syrup??
I love coffee. I’m pretty sure my brain doesn’t turn on until cup 2. There’s also a Starbucks in my building… which is a blessing… and a curse. When I found myself ordering a skinny mocha latte, I often felt disappointed afterwards because it meant I’d just consumed about 115 calories (and it honestly made me just too full if I drank it right after lunch, when I really “need” it). Those liquid calories will sneak up on ya, folks. And if a tall (smallest size) skinny (their lower calorie version) latte is at least 100 calories, I shudder to imagine what their larger, non-“skinny” drinks ring in at. Then, I discovered this little combination! I’ll grab an iced, unsweetened cup of black coffee from Starbucks (or make it with the lunchroom Keurig) and squirt in a bit of my very own homemade coffee syrup (which I put in a travel size shampoo container from Walgreen’s). Ahh. Refreshment. Deliciousness. Love.

I made this and once in the fridge almost my whole bottle crystallized. I used swerve which is a stevia product. Did I maybe not simmer at a high enough temp, or not long enough? Do you think I could re heat this batch and fix? I really want to make this work..
Connie Williams says
I heated water to almost boiling then added truvia and vanilla stirred it, let it cool. It didn’t crystallize.

I made this today because I found that my Torino and Davinci syrups were not Keto. I really liked this in my coffee so thanks for the recipe. I used Swerve and it’s perfect. However when it cooled it crystallized. Is there a way to prevent this. I didn’t time my cook time. I’m wondering if that caused it. Thanks
