Does anyone make their own flavoring syrups? If so, may I inquire as to what brand of flavoring oil you prefer and what is your recipe procedure? We're intending to begin experimenting with making our own syrups. Thanks very much.

I used to make french vanilla syrup a good bit, I started with a 2 - 1 vanilla sugar to water ratio and brought it to a boil.  I then let it cool off a bit and tempered in an egg yolk.

 

It's interesting......and note that depending on what you use to add flavor you may want to add it while its still very hot or as it is cooler so as not to evaporative away the flavor!

I had never even thought of doing this before, and frankly, didn't know it was possible.  I am extremely interested in learning more about homemade flavor syrups though! WAY COOL!

 

On a side note, In the bakery part of my coffee shop, we just began making our own vanilla extract using vodka and Tahitian vanilla beans. Makes a HUGE difference in all of our baked goods! 

Just try adding some of that to warm simple syrup and you're well on your way

Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Much appreciated.

There's been much discussion on this here in the past (or maybe other sites).  A quick google search specific to sites like this and coffeegeek and whatnot should turn up solid results.
