Sugar water?

[MarketTree]

Hello,

When adding sugar water, what should the ratio of sugar to water be?

And yes, I know that fresh clean water should also be provided at all times as well.

Thanks a lot!

For your basic simple syrup recipe, you only need two ingredients: water and sugar. The most common ratio for simple syrup is equal parts water to sugar. This doesn't mean that you couldn't make the syrup richer by using more sugar or leaner by using less sugar.
