AuthorNote: This is a variation on a large chain's syrup. It also goes
great in tea, in apple cider, or with a french toast casserole.

VARIATIONS:
-Make a gingerbread syrup by adding 4 slices fresh ginger and 2
tablespoons molasses. Follow the same instructions.
-Want it to taste a little more like the fall drink from the coffee train?
Use brown sugar and increase the amount to 2 cups. All other ingredients
and amounts stay the same.
-Add 1 or 2 tablespoons to a cup of coffee, tea, or hot apple cider.
