Ingredients

  • 1 cup maple syrup (Grade A or B)
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped out
  • 1 2 inch wide slice of lemon rind (not the white pith)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla paste

Instructions

  1. Add the maple syrup, vanilla bean the seeds, lemon, vanilla paste and water to a sauce pan bring to a boil then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cover and let sit until the syrup cools to room temperature. To store pour it in a lidded jar include the vanilla bean and remove the lemon rind. Refrigerate. I recommend letting it sit overnight before using as the vanilla and maple will meld producing a more intense flavor.
  2. To make the soda, add 2- 3 tbs maple/vanilla syrup to an 8 oz glass, add seltzer or club soda, ice cubes and enjoy. This is great as an ice cream float, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream. You can adjust the amount of syrup to suit your taste.
