Ingredients needed to make the Starbucks brown sugar syrup

• Water
• Pure maple syrup
• Cinnamon sticks

Steps needed to make the Starbucks brown sugar syrup

1. Scoop ½ a cup of brown sugar, measure a third cup of pure maple syrup, a teaspoon of fine sea salt, a cinnamon stick, and five tablespoons of water. Add all these ingredients to a saucepan and stir.
2. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook until the sugar is dissolved. This process might take about a minute.
3. Once the sugar is dissolved, leave the mixture to cool down to room temperature.
4. Once the mixture is cooled, add it to your glass jar/bottle using a funnel.

Notes:

• Ensure you use pure maple syrup and not maple-flavored syrup since these two have different ingredients. This will alter the taste of the final product.
