Make this 3-ingredient homemade toffee nut syrup recipe with toffee bits, sugar, and water. Use it in hot coffee, iced coffee, lattes, and Starbucks-inspired drinks for sweet, buttery toffee flavor.
Put water, sugar and toffee bits into a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to low-medium heat and simmer for about 7 minutes or until most of the toffee has melted. Give it a good stir occasionally with a heat proof spoon or spatula.
1 cup toffee bits, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water
Let cool 10-15 minutes.
Strain it using a mesh strainer or cheesecloth, I use a small metal strainer. Pour into an airtight bottle or mason jar.
Notes
After the syrup comes to a boil, reduce the heat enough to maintain a gentle simmer. On most stoves, this is somewhere between medium-low and medium heat.After the syrup has cooled and been strained, you may notice a thin layer or a few small toffee bits rise to the top. Skim them off for a smoother syrup, or shake the jar to mix them back in before using.
