Cook's Notes:  To make simple syrup, combine 1 cup water with 1 cup sugar (or any amount of equal parts) in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Cool before using. Simple syrup will keep in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
